    An authoritarian oligarchy posing as a socialist republic would be better, am I right? Then our human rights can still be crushed by the state for the benefit of a chosen few, but the uniforms and anthem are better.

      A Socialist Republic would be better than a Capitalist Republic, yes. Human rights would be better represented if the profit motive was abolished and production was run democratically, rather than by competing warlords in Capitalism.
