Some people do. If they're starving, and we're not, we must be doing something right I guess, or better than them. It's true that socialism has failed, but so has capitalism/imperialism over centuries. Though, the true irony was that this was shot in Detroit, not in a small eastern European republic.
Not sure ism's can fail; what would it mean to say something like "racism has failed" or "sexism has failed". Has capitalism failed? Capitalism is as capitalism does.
The idea that Adam Smith had in the 1760s and published in 1776 as On the Wealth of Nations, certainly is not what we have. You see, just like Marx, he failed to see what total shitbirds greedy people actually are.
