Capitalist by mind, Socialist by heart.

When a big vehicle collides with a smaller one, we mostly blame the larger one, irrespective of whoever is at fault.

When the gigantic, muscular guy fights the weaker one, we somehow want the underdog to win.

When the large enterprise sues the small startup, we unknowingly support the startup.

People are somehow wired to believe that the bigger, richer, and stronger guy is always wrong.

And here’s possibly why:

Inwardly, we are still living in the industrial age, where the higher class, who owned the means of production and society’s wealth, would mostly exploit the lower/working class – as perceived by the majority.

Today, we have somehow become capitalist by mind but are still socialist by heart.
