What do you mean by “human nature” that prevents socialism globally? I’m talking about the real world, where tendencies towards centralization, globalization, and monopolization prepare the groundwork for a collectivized and planned economy, just like what Marx initially observed back in the 1800s in early form.
There’s no ChatGPT involved, and I’d appreciate you dropping the condescension. People’s way of thinking is determined by their lived experience, how they work and how they get what they need. As it becomes harder and harder for that to happen, at the same time we are already building up incredibly complex systems of production and distribution.
What remains is for working class organization, revolution, and nationalizing the large firms and key industries, finance, etc in any given country. Other countries have already done this before, it isn’t impossible, and people become increasingly motivated to do so and it becomes increasingly feasible as disparity increases.
It’s absolutely practical, actionable, and realistic, though. If you live in the US, you can join the PSL, as an example, and work towards this goal. Which part in particular do you think isn’t actionable or practical?
I already told you that the aim is revolution. Nobody thinks PSL is going to win the 2028 presidency, or that the working classes now are already organized. We get there by organizing. The fact that there’s work to do doesn’t mean the work is impossible or pointless, this kind of “if revolution isn’t instant then it’s worthless” is the kind of attitude adopted by people that sit on their hands and doomscroll for the entirety of their political existence.
No? The US Empire is decaying due to its own internal contradictions, nor are we waiting for a magical greater good, but instead organizing right now. You can stop with the dehumanization and ageism, you have no counter-arguments so you hide behind insults.

The Party for Socialism and Liberation has a Party Program you can read for a US-based approach.
