You are free to do whatever you want, and you are not a bad leftist if you invest

But if you claim that you are not going against the most basic principles of socialism while investing is just sad

The most basic principles of socialism like checks notes letting your employer keep extra value from you by turning down extra money and having to work as a wage slave when you’re 80.

It's not extra money, it's a portion off the money they stole from you

I don't see how this contradicts the point.

A whole lot of things in our lives go against basic principles of socialism, not sure how this is that much different.
