The biggest crime of communism is its destruction of the human soul.
A key goal of communism is to demoralize societies—to destroy the culture, religion, and basic values of any society it touches. This goal is laid out clearly in “The Communist Manifesto,” in which Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels wrote in 1848 that communism “abolishes all religion, and all morality.”
The most terrifying thing for someone is the destruction of faith, belief, and morality. In the Bible, the Book of Matthew states, “Fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in Hell.”
We’ve seen repeatedly that the goal of communism is to destroy the soul of humankind. https://www.unionpeace.org/time/communism-is-satanic-by-nature.html
Preach it! Capitalism evolved naturally and is a perfect representation of human nature. It's organic and no one had to "create" it. It grew naturally out of the labor and industry of millions of people over the ages.
Communism is a completely manufactured ideology that originated in the fevered and angry minds of misfits and losers. It is promoted to this very day by angry misfits who can't seem to earn their own keep in this world.
It may turn out that the only way to rid ourselves of this evil would be to eradicate every single communist in our midst.
Capitalism isn't bad. It uses the desire to compete to bring "the best product to the most people in the most efficient manner." Money is just the cost of doing business.
Communism, OTOH, is used to reward your buddies and friends-who-bribe-you with cushy positions. Those cushy positions just so happen to come with lots of money... which goes back into your pocket.
True, but I think you missed my point. Capitalism evolved out of the human consciousness organically. Communism was created whole cloth by some very deranged people. Capitalism is human nature writ large. Communism is intellectual bullshit that only naive people can believe in.
Oh, I didn't misunderstand you at all, fellow Pede, I was expanding on your thought.
As a consequence of its distributed development, Capitalism can be used positively.
As a consequence of its centralized development, Communism produces massive inefficiencies.
I should have better clarified my thoughts :-)
Ah, got it. We both have valid points to make on this. I just wish younger folks could see through the indoctrination they are getting and understand these two points. Some do; most don't. Or worse, WON'T.
The soul of humanity is not morals, but three aspects: Love, joy and peace.
Even during the darkest hours of soviet suppression or Mao's leap forward, or Pol Pot's killing fields, that soul never was destroyed.
The current technical prowess to interfere with and in the physical communication structure and pathways, is a very scary one. The multiple vectors to reach that purpose, on the wings of governmental overeach (check in several countries the new laws they try to bring to bear) bring this prospect within range.
THis s both good and bad news. On the one hand it is bad news as the war will intensify.
In 1581, Dutch rebels wore an insigna inscribed with the words: jusques a porter la Besace. Or in the words of the DoI of 1776: fortunes and sacred honor.
Anno 2021: it may very well be that it will take every component we are. Fortunately, wwg1wa is a very comforting and encouraging thought.
To make Marxism work, originally, they used class. They set the lower classes against the upper classes. Obviously, it was just a ruse to get the upper classes replaced with a new upper class who wanted to be in control of everything.
Sadly for the Marxists, the working class were not too keen on joining the revolution so they failed to take over the world.
This time, in the US at least, they just replaced class with race. They are trying their best to set the races against each other to achieve the same end.
Too true. It takes no notice at all of human behaviour and thought, it's fatal flaw.
Enmity between the seed of the serpent and the seed of the woman.
Exactly. That’s why the Biden campaign is as
Fighting for the soul of America. We’ve known all along they wanted to take our souls. That’s a satanic tagline.
When I was a child I thought Vampires and the story "Hansel & Gretel", etc were all fiction. As an adult, I know they are real.
