      Which countries don’t have capitalism?

      I want to say maybe North Korea, but authoritarian countries are fucked up for other reasons than capitalism.

        I think Cuba is the only one that really fits the bill of “somewhat functional country without any variety of capitalism”, they’re authoritarian too although not nearly as bad as NK.

          China has more billionaires than America, they’re capitalists disguised with socialist themes.

          North Korea even abandoned declaring itself as socialism with its Juche in it’s 2019 constitution, removing all meantions of socialist theory and practice.

          Lol. China does not have capitalism? Please, tell me what economic system their companies are using? It might be state capitalism at most, but it’s still capitalism. Companies are run for profit, not for good, or for the state, or for the benefit of the people, or by workers.

Because of the lack of comments, it seems obvious it’s just downvotes because I’m not repeating the message you’re told to repeat.
