Default Socialism and Equality

I have come to the conclusion that capitalism is the most efficient economic system. However, I just realized that it is also a tool of sexism and racism. For example, prostitution and pornography, two of the most evil forms of male oppression, can exist only in a society with capitalistic elements. If everyone were made equal economically, no woman would be desperate and sell herself into such horrible forms of slavery.
The basis of racism, moreover, is economic rivalry. Slavery was motivated solely by economics, and economic rivalry between African Americans and working class whites is the cause of current racism. If everyone were made equal economically, there would be no such rivalry and racism would all but disappear. In conclusion, you may consider me a radical populist.
