Controlling people isn't the goal of socialists - it's the system. You have to reprogram humanity and reshape the economy in order to get the concept to work. That takes control.

Remember the last time you debunked a right-wing idea that the left wants Open Borders? You said no one does. Fast forward a few months, 3/4 of Dem candidates run on Open Borders.

The emergent dichotomy is not so much Left vs Right, but Authoritarian vs Libertarian. People enacting standards/laws to control more of our behaviors in order to more easily reach goals. Intention isn't what we're looking at, it's more about the approach. Top-down vs bottom-up.
