What is Copenhagen REALLY about?

Bold is mine:

Thank you Hugo Chavez, for disabusing all but the most obtuse of the notion that Dopenhagen is about anything other than imposing global socialism:

President Chavez brought the house down.

When he said the process in Copenhagen was "not democratic, it is not inclusive, but isn't that the reality of our world, the world is really and imperial dictatorship … down with imperial dictatorships" he got a rousing round of applause.

When he said there was a "silent and terrible ghost in the room" and that ghost was called capitalism, the applause was deafening.

But then he wound up to his grand conclusion — 20 minutes after his 5 minute speaking time was supposed to have ended and after quoting everyone from Karl Marx to Jesus Christ — "our revolution seeks to help all people … socialism, the other ghost that is probably wandering around this room, that's the way to save the planet, capitalism is the road to hell let's fight against capitalism and make it obey us." He won a standing ovation.
For knuckle-dragging thugs like Chavez to take everything you own and to micromanage every aspect of your existence is the objective of Copenhagen and the environmental movement in general.

It's as if they HATE capitalism because people have to EARN power and influence rather than backstepping their way into office where they get power and influence. The other evil of capitalism is that you're answerable to shareholders. Furthermore, capitalism leads to sharing the wealth- either with shareholders or the public at large- by providing a service or product they're willing to PAY for. It's no WONDER people like Chavez hate capitalism.
