We're talking about what's leftism not what's possible. If you promote a system where more people suffer, such as forcefully dismantling capitalism, then you're not progressive.

Most people who claim to oppose capitalism cant even describe what it is.

So you think capitalism is the best possible system and there’s no point in trying something better?

I don’t think you’re a leftist then.

I think Capitalism is the only system ever implemented at large scales and that fighting it into something else is like trying to move a river by hand. Be better to just heavily regulate it in a stable democracy.
