You are hyper focused on that one word that I used, when that wasn't really my main point. If you don't like that word, then how about I'll rephase. So how about this: "You did not provide any examples of a major leftist government that did not go horrible wrong, and have lots of problems."
> I'm making stuff up
By "making stuff up", I was saying that you were not referencing actual examples that I can look at, that exist in the real world, and are instead talking about hypotheticals that do not reflect how those hypotheticals exist in the real world.
> to this very moment: the UK, France, the Western world in general
And I am going to say that I would much rather live in any of these countries, than any real life examples of leftist governments.
Based on that, and based on comparing real world examples, I am going to say that I would deal with less problems by living in a western country.

Sounds like your ideal society didn't work out so great then and has a lot of horrible problems. If all the leftist governments implode because they can't defend themselves, then it sounds like that is a pretty big problem, and I would never want to live in such a society.
> Much like right-wing economics was doomed
Well at least it is a lot better to live in than the alternative leftist governments! I would still much prefer living in the right wing economies than in any of the leftist ones.
