Happy Socialists Day

4 false starts this AM,,, I don’t really know what I want to say.   May be not enough coffee in the bloodstream…

With all the deep diving I have been into on the religious sides of things, then trying to switch over to something quasi-political,,,   hmmmph,   Let me spell it out how I see it.    ALL OF THE ABOVE might have been good ideas at one time under thier original thinkers, but they have all been co-opted for one purpose: CONTROL.    Now, I must clarify, Marx was a Nuckin’FutJob from the word go IMO.    I’ve read his shit and wonder how anyone could read it and think “this guy is onto something” unless they were closet tyro’s themselves.   Yeshuah, Buddha, the others: Great ideas, stolen and ran with by Tyros.  

Proof is in the puddin’, right?    Since the Red Revolution of Russia to now, Communism/Socialism has killed more people than all the wars of the same time frame.   And only ONE is still ‘functional’ but only by emulating Capitalism.   Cuba is NOT a good example for showing ‘the glory of Communism’, and the proof of that is the media blackout of what is really going on, on tha island.   Oh, information can be found, if one wants to dig for it, but most people are too entrenched in their lives and want someone else to ‘tell it’ to them.  

hmm,,, that lines up well with the whole co-opting religion thing.  And we have had 2000+ years of that, ain’t we?  

“Only those willing to seek the truth,  will know the truth.”

All others will be lead like sheep to the slaughter, and hoo-boy have we had slaughter the last 120 years/2000years.

I’m gonna spin this out a different way.   EVERYTHING IN MODERATION    Much like I found with ‘Green Energy’, Communism can work in small form factor.   Tribalism is about as close as you can get to that.    Everyone working for the whole, no one getting more than ‘fair share’.  Or as the communists creed states, From each according to ability, to each according to need.    (question: Who decides?   Answer that and you start to see the veneer flaking off.)   Green Energy can work for extremely localized needs, like a single household or small farm.   Communism could work in the same way.  Its when you start trying to Scale up that things go all wonky.   Green energy isn’t stable enough to provide the ups and downs of massive infrastructure, Communism loses the cobalt rod of self integrity found in small communities.

yes, I’m a little scatterbrained right now.

I recently stumbled over a video of Two AI discussing a solution to Capitalism without being socialist.   I have yet to watch the entirety of it, but I have already found on issue with it.  HUMAN NATURE.    See, true free market capitalism operates on rules that are naturally based, and Human Nature is what drives those rules.   WE DO NOT HAVE FREE MARKET CAPITALISM no matter what modern economists wanna call it.  We are very much a socialist oriented market these days, with 1/3 or the population on some form of welfare, another 1/3 being on workfare, and maybe half of the last third being the entreprenur that DRIVES free market capitalism.    If that doesn’t make sense to you, please, READ A BOOK(free copy if you want one.), and until it does make sense, Your arguments are bunk.

Human nature is why Communism can never work: people are not cogs or widgets to be moved around and replaced as needed.   We don’t ‘work’ like that.  No one fits any specific niche created by the communist machine.  It will limp along for awhile,  but it WILL fail!!!

One thing about the US Constitution: It does describe a machine, gives a blueprint for it even.   BUT, that machine is only for the Government,, NOT THE PEOPLE.    And yet, that Machine has grown til now, so that its infested everyday life around us.    It shows in how our country went from a Free Market system in the late 1800’s to the growing socialist construction we live under today.    All centered around that little amendment to the Constitution in 1917.

It’s always about control.    points that show such.  CENSORSHIP.   REGULATIONS.   TAXATION.

and thats just a start: the tools get more insidious as the infection grows.

But we Celebrate it in disguise.   We lift a beer and a burger in celebration of “labor”,,,  

note, we never raise a beer and burger to “CRITICAL THINKING”,,,,   just sayin’,,,

more laters,,,
