Forum Post: Marxism destroys the will of the individual

When a marxist is alone, it is tortuous to them. It is impossible for them to understand themselves in relation to the universe. They need someone to tell them who they are. A group. A cause. An ideology. After becoming an established part of "a group" they form partnerships with similar groups and conspire to control and steal from other groups. Individual freedom, and the ability to think and act within that freedom, is alien to marxists. They fear it. Anyone who embraces individual freedom is an "outsider" worthy of wrath. To be a marxist you must always believe that you are a subordinate to the will of another force called government. And in that subordination , marxists worship government like it's a God through which they beleive they can understand themselves in relation to the universe.

Take this message elsewhere. This movement is a pro-democracy movement and is unrelated to any Marxist message. Want your fair share of political influence? Then join this.

P.S. The stuff you say isn't actually true anyway, but it's irrelevant.

What is the point and purpose of this post? Apparently you are extremely confused as to what this site promotes. My grandfather worked in a Kentucky coal mine before unions arrived. He lived in a company town that owned all the land, rental units, grocery/sundry stores.They paid wages so low and made the cost of living so h high that people became debt slaves. They had company paid thugs that bashed the heads in of anyone that dared to speak out. "Funny" how history repeats itself. 99% of us live in economic tyranny. We aren't going to take it anymore. We aren't going to let the parasitic greed of international banksters and mega corporations take away our futures, nor the futures of our children/grandchildren. WE THE PEOPLE are speaking out, we will not be silenced. Choose which side you are on because the time has come-

Marxists don't worship government. Their end goal is the "withering away of the state." I have my disagreements with Marxism, but unlike you, I've actually bothered to study it.

Ahem, I would say they worship society over the individual, not government over the individual. But anyway, no need for this criticism here, if you believe in the movement come and join us, and if not buzz off!

The biggest Marxist in the US are the business elites. They understand class struggle all too well and have been fighting a class war for generations.

Also, everything you said about Marxism could also apply to religion, political parties, etc

Wtf are you talking about? Do you even know what marxism is? Please give me a summery because obviously no one in there right mind would advocate what you described above.
