Yep, I noticed it on this forum recently as well. People complain when profit incentives don't lead to value creation in some instance and see that as a basis to reject capitalism. They don't consider what happens when you replace profit with politics - incentives end up being perverse by default (as we are seeing more and more in the West with regulatory capture and government granted monopolies).
I think basic income is the least disruptive of all as it keeps the incentives for industry there but still creates a floor for everyone. It would change availability of various services/disrupt pricing but I would prefer that to socialism any day.
