Not a Gotchya question but have you read much about socialism or communism from those who actually support it? They both have great ideas for the right time in our societal evolution.

Rather than trying to convince America to become like China, why not just pack up and move there? Not sure what the issue is.
Why put words in my mouth? Can you show me where I said I want America to be like China?
Funny how nobody’s talking about whether “societal evolution” is a linear trajectory or a chaotic mess. The idea that socialism/communism have “great ideas for the right time” assumes progress is a fixed path, but studies like this one (PMC) show progress optimism is a recent, contested concept. If societal evolution is social/technological (Biologos), then “the right time” might depend on who’s pulling the strings. Ever notice how utopian systems always sound perfect in theory but get messy when implemented? Follow the money—whose interests benefit from framing history as a march toward some idealized future?
