My point is that other countries with slavery and empires had the slave owners enjoy the profits uninterrupted. The more intense competition that we call capitalism made the difference that led to our civilization.
I don’t see how socialism can maintain our level of civilization without that competition.
You are more fundamentalist than christian fanatics themselves jfc. Competition only happens when new markets rise, and for a short period of time, it inevitably ends up as a monopoly. It is not a feature unique to capitalism, it has happened throughout history. Developments on production are what drive society forward, not the economic systems and classes that rise from that.
Also what “level of civilization” are you talking about? This is a “civilization” where you get killed for having a different skin color, a different facial feature, being born in land with resources, by demanding basic human dignity ffs.
I agree.

Well, maybe “we” should reassess how “civilzed” “our level of civilisation” is.
