Not entirely wrong
No lie detected.
But those aren’t socialism. They’re rich people jerking each other off while laughing in the face of us low socioeconomic peasants.
Rightists: “Socialism is when the poors get any manner of social benefit.”
Never mind that the poors are the primary source of the funds for said benefit. We live in a system where the rich control a system that allows them to plunder from the poor and funnel those funds to themselves.
Capitalism is theft, and theft is capitalism. Capitalism is good.
But pooling our collective resources for the general benefit of all us… that’s bad. That’s socialism.
How DARE the plebes be allowed to spend their money on themselves when some multimillionaires that destroyed their billion dollar businesses need a bigger yacht and a fourth European vacation home!?

But the workers literally control the means of production. We could decide not to turn on the machines until those with the capital give us more of it. That’s called a strike. There’s a couple in the U.S. that appear to be going well. I’m hopeful that other executives will figure out that they must help the workers or that more strikes occur to help them learn that lesson.

Lets see how long we the peasants are permitted to use that privilege, now that the people are emboldened to utilize it again. If history is any guide, the government step in to kneecap them if they come to meaningfully effect shareholder profit.
Only a matter of time before striking becomes illegal. Nothing is going to happen unless a general strike happens among all industries.
Well, it’s not wrong. But for the wrong reasons.
