The entire argument falls apart simply because if socialism was correct then it would have enough resources to beat the capitalists.
End of the day your arguing resource generation and expenditure. Socialism sucks absolute fucking ass at resource generation. Like absurdly. It’s one of the worse there is.
It’s why socialist countries still need capitalism to generate the resources they excel at managing. A management focused system can’t beat a generation focused one.
It’s why anyone arguing for a pure system of any type. Capitalism, socialism, Communism, etc. Are fucking retarded and not worth engaging with.
The only ideal system would be one that can get out of its own ass enough to blend multiable different systems in a positive fashion. But humans suck too much to manage that.
Socialism is not magic. How would Cuba, a tiny island nation with a population of around 11 million people, ever be able to generate the resources required to stand against the United States, a vast continent-spanning behemoth with a population of 350 million, in a conflict?
Besides which, why should maximum resource extraction be the goal, rather than optimizing for the happiness and wellbeing of the people who live there?
Under capitalism, you get maximum fossil fuel extraction, but is that really a good thing?
