Socialism will end class divisions and exponentially increase the quality of life of humanity

That’s exactly the opposite of what capitalists want, explicitly or implicitly

But I worked really hard with my daddy's money, not like those lazy people who choose to work at 7-11
How?

My issue with the meme is that it says socialism WILL do XYZ instead of socialism HAS (although "will" is likely reference to western societies but digress)
It is already scientifically proven that socialist societies have better nutritional intake, life expectancy, real wages, education, healthcare, social mobility, leisure time, real wages/purchasing power, tech research, equality among sexes/races/nationalities, ratio of green land, and even seemingly unrelated things like better interpersonal relationships and sex, when compared to capitalist peer nations.
Most famous example: USSR. If you compare every metric you would use to define "quality of life", you will find a SHARP improvement across the board when the tsardom ended and socialism began, and a SHARP decline when it was overthrown in 1991. The same will be found in any socialist society.
How exactly this occurs is a very long answer, but suffice to say, when society is run for the general welfare of society, it tends to perform better for general society than a system whose sole purpose is enriching the rich.

What do you mean?
Communism is very similar to socialism, as both involve the controll of production of goods by the people, not the government. The difference being communism expands to also services, while socialism only covers the necessities. Though another key diffrence is in why these ideas are adopted. Socialism is slowly achieved as people want to keep the government from controlling them, while communism is achieved in an all out overthrowing of the old government or in an act of similar extremes.
