When people argue with me about socialism they bring up my business

Like do you have any idea of what socialism is? Do you think there’s no businesses in socialist countries? Do you think the govt give you the clothes you wear? you think there’s no restaurants or barbershops?
Or entrepreneurship? You think people can’t make money under socialism?

The idea most people have of socialism is straight up capitalist propaganda
Entrepreneurship is not the same thing as capitalism
Business is not the same thing as capitalism. Commerce exists separate of these things

eliminating capitalism doesnt mean zero private sector
Capitalism isnt entrepreneurship
Socialism doesnt mean you cant have your private property. Your property is actually safer under socialism than capitalism. Capitalism protects big time capital, which is then used to exploit workers and create profits. That's why our governments always bail corporations out
