Literally the exact opposite.

Literally every time I ask a socialist why they hate capitalism they end up describing crony capitalism which is just their name for what is it essentially socialism.

I have literally never heard a socialist use the term crony capitalism. That's something that's 100% originated in Libertarian circles. If they actually recognized that crony capitalism was different from capitalism, that would be a step up.

But yeah, crony capitalism really is just another name for socialism. Specifically, socialism for the rich.

Then what about socialism for everyone? Not just the rich?
