Yes someone explain my poor phrasing. They even mentioned the word I mentioned but I forget.

I'm not the capitalist version of a tanky.

I believe the concept of capitalism could work, and I believe it would work better than socialism. Another common ground I have with socialist is that I understand the examples of my preferred... Arrangement of society have been corrupted and not run under the ideas they claim.

That's what I mean by common ground and that's where I sympathize. I wouldn't want someone pointing at trump and saying "that's capitalism!" And I would never point at Kim jun un and say "that's socialism"

I also understand the "ideal, pure, perfect implementation" of either idea probably isn't possible.

I lean more to capitalism.

That's what I meant when I said "I'm a capitalist" I misspoke.
