Praising Communism While Enjoying All the Benefits of Living Under Capitalism

I've never understood why so many who like to praise communism don't just pack up their stuff (which they wouldn't have if they lived under a communist regime) and move to a communist country. You're free to leave, you know. No one is keeping you in, for example, England, Germany or Canada.
That being the case, why are you still here? If capitalism is so bad, so "oppressive", "racist" and all that other jazz, then GO!
Go on! Leave! Move to China. I'll even buy your plane ticket (one-way of course)! 😊

socialism groupies are all the same, hiding in their safe little bubbles of ignorance, talking about how great socialism is by using examples of countries that aren't even socialist; and when you reply with actual examples of socialism, they retort with idiotic nonsense like "oh, but but, that's not how socialism is supposed to work..."

That's the lesson they can't seem to grasp, it doesn't, never has, and never will work the way they expect it to work; and it exists because gullible, naive, idiots like them welcome it with open arms (then complain later that what they were sold wasn't what was advertised, what a shocker...)

Tyrants like Hitler, Stalin, Mussolini, etc. didn't just magically rise to power on their own accord, they got there with help from socialist wannabee idiots...

Not all nationalism leads to fascism (wanting to make America great again doesn't make you a nazi), on the other hand, all socialism leads to communism; regardless of how a country gets there, or what their political parties call themselves, the end result is always the same... corrupt tyrannical dictators & a society full of shared misery.

@wildbill83 You're right but you do get an awful lot of people, when a private company does something appalling or negligent but suffers no real consequences, who say "oh, but, but, that's not how the free market is supposed to work..."

The problem is people believing in ideology over practicality. And at least mildly patriotic capitalism is much more practical!
