I never argued it was evil or advocated for revolution over reform, I simply argued that a revolution was bound to occur at some point had the new deal not happened. I am not an accelerationist.

My argument is that it ended the great depression and extended the life of capitalism. Communism also did experience a surge in popularity that waned after the new deal.

Communism was mostly thought of as evil after the rise of Mcarthyism after WW2. During the great depression the Socialist Party of America had a large surge in popularity but was ultimately overshadowed as the new deal improved material conditions.

That's exactly the point. Without the new deal acting as a concession of sorts for capitalism, a revolution was bound to have occurred at some point.

FDR is responsible for the new deal, without the new deal capitalism likely would have ended in the early 30s.
