On the one hand? You don't get to piss and moan about "personal interests" when that is literally all Capitalism runs off of.

On the other? Um, no. That affects authoritarian systems more, of which the Soviet Union is merely a (no longer existing) Stalinist example. China is authoritarian (Oligarchic and capitalist). Russia is authoritarian (Oligarchic and capitalist). Brazil is now authoritarian (beholden mainly to foreign oligarchs, Christian fascist). The USA has been backsliding into authoritarianism (Oligarchic and capitalist) for years now to the point where we have a billionaire oligarch as president.

So unless you're going to tell me that you're for an anarchic distribution of power in which everyone holds control over local means of production thereby dis-incentivizing them from polluting, I'm not really interested in hearing about someone trying to Red Scare in a world where communism basically doesn't exist in any notable country on the planet at this point in time.
