      I’ve always suspected people conflate communism with dictators, which is the main cause of distrust for anything anti-capitalism.

      Are there any examples of a nation successfully transitioning out of capitalism without ending up in a dictatorship? I want to believe it can be done, but I have no idea what it would look like.
