Sure, thanks for the chat. IDK how these got split.

But boy I can't help it...Wolves prey upon deer. That's not symbiosis. Maybe you can say they find a kind of "balance" in their perpetual struggle, but symbiosis requires mutual benefit.

To drop the analogy, working people don't benefit from capitalists. Capitalists exploit working people. There's no peace to be had between capitalists and workers, we are in perpetual struggle. Capitalist republics try to find "balance" in that struggle, so that capitalists can perpetually exploit working people.

And sorry, if you're not an idealist, are you a materialist? You didn't seem like it, but maybe i missed it.

Anyway, good luck, have fun!
