I mean… sociology kinda does lead to socialism. Understanding the mechanisms of society, and factors that drive inequality and injustice, is kind of the entire purpose of the field.

They’re scared because the sociologists are right when they’re screaming that capitalism is going to cause society to collapse under the weight of the sickest, nastiest 1% of our species. They’re scared because sociologists make the argument that socialism is–shock and fucking awe–a logically sound economic system that is fundamentally better than capitalism.
