The bias is justified. The left is correct. Markets don't create wealth without necessarily simultaneously creating poverty
Well that's just bullshit. Markets have brought more people out of poverty than anything.
Yes, just like the Irish people who were "helped" by the free market in the 1840s. Or the Indian people who were "helped" by the free market in the late 1800s. You might be interested in this book by the late, great Mike Davis which completely refutes your ideas with hard evidence that the free market can be used (and has been used) as a tool of genocide: https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/7859
Capitalism has killed millions more than its apologists could ever hope to claim communism has.
