^ I had a reflex of googling "winston churchill quotes socialism" at this signature.
The actual bit of speech would be truncated, and may be more like:

The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings; the inherent virtue of socialism is the equal sharing of miseries.

In either case, fact checking is systematically necessary these days, cause there's a whole lot of BS from propagandists on those online networks.

Capitalism is good at producing wealth, socialism, or say social democracy that's more polite and less totalitarian better at sharing it.
That's about it. Nothing much hard to understand in there.
