Capitalism with workers protections and a social safety net is better than anything else we have tried, and you know it.
That kind of capitalism only works due to neocolonialism in the global south. The profits for the safety net need to come from somewhere and it sure as hell is not from the profits of the bourgeoisie.

That kind of capitalism is responsible for massive advanced in the quality of life of people who live in the global South you pretend to care about. I'm not interested in your YouTube propaganda videos.
The quality of life has drastically gone down in the global south due to the global north. But sure, slavery and the pillage of the wealth of the global south was for the greater good, right? And of course, you wouldn’t watch anything that doesn’t fit your biases.
Oh, so now you're pretending mercantilism is capitalism. Pretty typical horse shit.
And no, quality of life is dramatically improving in the global South. Check rates of electrification, running water, and poverty. The facts say that life is getting better for the global poor, so why do you hate them so much?
