Most ideologies -- when taken to their extreme-- tend to become toxic. I was born and raised in a somewhat free-market Social Democracy (Denmark) and that's a very different interpretation of "socialism." Totalitarian regimes like Venezuela's are hardly representative... like the old USSR, calling it "socialism" was just putting a fancy dress on something much darker and more nefarious.
That HyperReality clip... looks like what all those people who lose themselves playing Second Life are working towards. No thanks!
