"This further reveals the depth of your problem. The 'Billionaires' (let's just say the world domination banking interests) are investing heavily in promoting communist and socialist ideas in the young because this is the best way to make entire demographics voluntarily give up their mental, moral and even national sovereignty and become hopelessly entangled in a self-perpetuating web of in-fighting. Divide and conquer. The PTB are interested in puny amateurs like you and your friends. Interested - not scared, but gleefully interested. They are delighted to see it. Their social engineering projects are working beautifully. turtleman" OK just the one: Why are people who say anti-socialist stuff on the internet often well-paid by billionaires (eg dave rubin/kochs) while people who promote socialist and anarchist ideas in the same medium have bugger all money in comparison? When does that cheque from soros arrive? - the answer is, it doesn't because soros is not socialist, he's a liberal (economically speaking), and he's about as far left as i've heard of a current billionaire being (ie not at all). This is basically the same as all the billionaires from the spectrum of say soros to koch - they all benefit hugely from the current system and want it to continue without substantial structural change (ie (economically) Liberal) - whether or not to include minor social tweaks to pacify the masses is the main contention between them (and they'll swiftly recognise their kinship with each other and against the rest of us when it's crunch time). That's not to say billionaire liberals don't send money to some socialist-ish sounding things to sound nice for the little folk (i'm sure they're often genuine in this and think they're the goodies (like we all do)), but that stuff's pretty easy to spot and distinguish from actual socialism imv (usually by the lack of consideration of economic justice or class, if not just the fact of the corporate money being there). If you think the powers that be want to promote socialism, how do you explain the entire global establishment's behaviour towards corbyn's mild proposals? Do the establishment want a different type of socialism than that? Is corbyn just not socialist enough for them? (he could be more for me too  ). Is the media/establishment smear campaign all some giant double bluff? What about venezuela - were the american elite secretly rooting for hugo chavez? For that matter, was the century long ongoing campaign of anti-socialism/communism from the western elite part of the same double bluff? Seems a bit mental - all that power, they could have just done it (that is, they could have just introduced a system that would see them lose all their power, oh hang on...) |
