"All I am doing is exposing the Communist infiltration. You continue to try to cover it up. Peace & love." Thats ludicrous. You can expose that a meme is present in the matrix. you can not expose other people as being communists just because they are polarized in the matrix mindgame some other color than you. You are inside of a box. that box is capitalism VS communism. neither of those things has EVER existed; the idea that either of them has is a polite fiction used to fool the proles into having all of their power taken away in order to have "wars" which were never about the interests of the proles but instead about the interests of the rich and corporations. You are being kept as a mental slave and peasant by virtue of the idea you have that there is a great communist conspiracy. instead, there is a corporate oligarchy, and you are accidentally its pwn and stooge until you wake up.
history 101. in the 14 hundreds humans with giant world conquering sized navies set out on a great adventure to begin redefining themselves socially and civilly. The essential game was up because the masses figured out and rejected slavery and simple forms of kingship. The quest was on; how to maintain a caste nobility of kings and elites and vampires... while still making it all LOOK moral and ethical. Different countries ended up with different schemes but they all amounted to masks and rituals on top of evolved feudalism. We haven't escaped. there has never been a democracy, never a capitalism, never a communism, never a socialism. there has only been a caste oligarchy feudal system using assorted political meta fictions and keeping dupe populations.
Representative republic with the Constitution as the foundation for the legal framework of operation was the original form set forth by the founders of the United States of America. Now what is the form? It's been hijacked by huge economic interests and now it is called Democracy.
Look up the definitions for 'Representative Republic' and 'Democracy' and tell me which form of government you'd prefer and why.
"Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote." -Ben Franklin . . The Socialist LOVE the idea of voting away the wealth of others, right up until the others vote away what little they had left. . I'll keep my Constitutionally framed republic thank you.
while true, our government was always actually an oligarchy and never managed to achieve the true formal definition of republic due to slaves and other issues.
i'd prefer democracy. a representative republic is just a form of oligarchy.
I'd have to agree with gawdoftruth.. This is not capitalism and it surly is not a Democracy. Getting caught in the "isms" is playing into the hands of the 1% ... Divide and conquer...Dualistic dogma's and such
thanks for weighing in, we need more people to do that.
Sounds like a sci fi or LSD fantasy with very little basis in reality. We live in a capitalist country that our government continues to defend even though it has failed. Corporations have more money than our government and they are not doing right by our people. Corporations need to be regulated. That is what the movement is about. Corporations need to invest in America and our working class instead of investing in China and the Chinese working class where they can get cheap labor and make more profit because of it and because of the profit loopholes and tax breaks our country gives them for calling themselves American. They are not American. They are anti-American. If they want to be a so-called citizen of our great country, they need to invest in our country and stop exploiting our working class.
no, we live in a corporate oligarchy. Capitalism is mere smoke and mirror fiction to cover that. As are communism, socialism, and etc. There has never been such a system in any world national government. They are patent oligarchies. And you guys are just pwns running with the one side of that polarization, doing just what the elites want- divide and conquer.
Otherwise you seem to have at least managed to parrot the main lines and ideals of the movement. If you sincerely agree with those ideals, then be a part of this.
It doesn't really matter what you call it, the point is 99% of the population does not reap the rewards and we want to change that. Slavery has been around forever and the elite few who run the world -- the Bush's, the Bin Laden's, the Al Waleeds, and the multi-billionaires who have made record profits under the Obama administration -- do not deserve the support of our working class demographic, the wealthy business owners, or the poor when they exploit us for their own greedy profit.
it does matter, because ultimately capitalism in some form or another is going to be with us for a good while longer. Corporate oligarchy can and should be ended immediately. Evolutionary process should be ending the vestiges of capitalism very soon. We have had a very partial capitalist system, its going to however get skipped as we evolve past it. Calling it capitalism is attacking the mask instead of the wearer of the mask. the problem is corporate oligarchy. Calling it capitalism is what they want us to do to mask it over and confuse the issues.
