Your understanding of the concept socialism, is apparently biased with rather right wing indoctrination of the cold war era western world.
We already covered biases, didn't we. We all have biases that is what makes us different. It will be delusional to think that we should not have any biases. I don't think it is indoctrination though as my thought have changed extreme liberal to rather conservative based upon my own observations.

That is not correct based upon my experience and observations. I find that western system is not perfect but provides more choices and ability to drive your own life. While the socialism systems are run by dictatorship.

Well !!! I go by what has been the history so far. And there is a reason it has failed every time regardless of the cultural parameters. There is a reason for this. Whenever there is a concentration of power in few hands (the group that is allocating the resources); the corruption sets in. This is regardless of the culture as human condition is the same.

The true freedom allows you to do what you choose to do even though it my seem destructive.
In this scenario- other entities will end up using their freedom to self defense and safety. The higher entities may also intervene. Or everyone just enjoy this whole blowing off experience. Off to the next planet; yipee... no pain no fear just experience....Self governance does not translate into no governance. It does means no one is dictating to you, the dos and the don'ts...
This scenario is likely in 4D negative as it is quite different and I have been talking for 4D positive only unless mentioned specifically.
