I feel there are many as well who know capitalism needs to go away, but also understand that sudden change will cost many lives and violent revolution doesn't guarantee that you'll end up any better off, and as a result are trying to go for a "soft landing". Downside is that takes a lot of time and needs to have successively more progressive governments and policies in place each election cycle. Given the "tick-tock" pattern of switching between D and R administrations, this simply does not happen.
Always odd when people are more concerned with potential damage caused by change than the massive amounts of damage caused everyday by the current reality.
