I'm confident from your other comments that I don't like the specifics of radical political organizations you mean, but the general message is correct, apathy destroys people and societies.

"I would prefer to starve than have socialism"

Socialism leads to starvation.

at equivalent levels of economic development

You mean in the middle of nowhere with some camel shit here and there socialism would produce better quality of life? Yeah, maybe.

Only "capitalist" countries may be on that level of development, and may be on the level of USA or maybe Germany or Finland.

While "socialist" countries are not represented on the latter, why would that be?

So you're ignoring 85% of the capitalist world then. Cool.

I can make socialism look fucking awesome if I ignore the 85% of it that performs the worst too.

And that's completely ignoring the fact that every single bit of standard of living you get in the western empire comes off the backs of exploitation of the global south.

Naming germany is fun, eastern germany used to be socialist and wants to go back to socialism, while Berlin's population voted to expropriate all property from all major landlords via a referendum, seizing 1.5million homes owned by the parasites. And what's happening over in Salzburg city proper where 20% voting for the communist party might spook you, 1 in 5 reds under the bed! Ooger booger!
