    There’s no such thing as “true socialism,” that’s part of the point of the article.

    Sure, but it provided a reason why the previous attempts of it failed, and in my opinion it’s only a part of the equation.

    Why do you think Socialism cares about thinfs like self-serving people?

    Socialism can not care, as it’s is not a conscious entity. Socialism can only “care” about whatever the people that are trying to implement it care about. And it failed every time in large part, IMO, because people didn’t care about things like self-serving people.

    Not as gospel, sure, but they have been proven correct.

    Proven correct by whom? Soviet Union which fell apart? North Korea that haven’t collapsed yet only because it’s propped by China? China which had Mao starve tens of millions people to death and is currently successful only because it’s full blown capitalist and “communist” in name only?
