The EU's GDPR is a good example of privacy prioritized over corporate profit.

Not prioritized at all is not what the parent poster alleged.

Sorry, but I interpret "entirely run by capital" differently.

"entirely run by capital" and "not at all run by capital" are not the only two options. There's a very wide spectrum between the two. Again, GDPR is an example of this; so's the Norwegian sovereign wealth fund versus, say, Alaska's oil dividend.

Exactly my point, thank you. EU GDPR is a great example. There is a wide spectrum between the two that the parent commenter appeared to disregard.

They didn't disregard it at all.

> The US is entirely run by capital. If its profitable it'll be allowed even if it harms peiple

None of this wording excludes the following:

"In contrast to the US, Europe is not entirely run by capital. If it's profitable it may not be allowed if it harms people."

Compared to the US: EU

Why limit the question to governance?

Democratic socialism

The socialism only exists for capital owners
