It's Jacobin Magazine. Putting complicated news stories into a procrustean oversimplification that produces a socialism/capitalism manichean duality is a substantial part of their reporting.

I suggest not taking it too seriously;it's just what they do.

In other words - it's not about making an argument to convince anyone of anything; it's making an argument that will make people who already agree with you feel better about themselves.

Truthfully that takes a degree of skill and it even has utility but as you say - it's best to see it for what it is.
