      I mean, that is what I want out of society. But I am not a Marxist-Leninist solely because socialism is the best system for the ordinary people and morally right, I am a Marxist-Leninist because I believe in dialectical materialism as an accurate worldview and analysis tool, and I believe that communism is inevitable societal progress. So… yeah. There’s a reason we want genuine progress towards socialism, not just regulating capitalism to put a lower and upper limit on the wealth disparity. As much as efforts to do that can reduce active harm and save lives in the short term.
