 Communism Revolution Without a Reason Recreational social activism If one selects a view of the universe that does not include God, It greatly amplifies the importance of this life as it seems all one can expect. Seeing others have what you want can be galling. For Marx the solution was obvious, if rich people were rich because they owned the factories, then if the workers owned the factories, they would be the ones who were rich. He thought that the factory workers would be so outraged at the wealth disparity that they would rise up in revolution and use violence to set things right. In the Russian Revolution not being Christian was an advantage as those willing to kill others the quickest had a distinct political advantage. It was not so much that the workers rose up, but discontent with war and starvation contributed to support for anyone that might help them.  The Soviet Union did try to subvert and infiltrate other nations. However, during the anti-communist posturing in the US Congress in the 1950s, the politicians were sending their own children to college where many would receive de-facto communist indoctrination. To clarify, Communism is defined as the absence of private ownership of property. However, if a socialist says you can have private property, but you need approval to use it, there can be little distinction between the two. The collective was the initial strategy of Communism. However, as factories were changing from individual ownership to collective (corporation) ownership, labor was also changing to the collectivization of unions. Pure Communism does not exist. It requires a suspension of human nature. While attempted in various utopian communities, it never worked. Interestingly both Fascism and Communism are collectivist. Often less noticed, the dominant form of Capitalism (the joint stock corporation) is also a collectivist enterprise. The collective nature of socialism exists parasitically in most countries. Pure socialism would fail just as quickly as pure Communism. China is an interesting study as their government is called “Communist”, but they were pragmatic enough to recognize that an alternative was needed. They are perhaps more accurately defined as an oligarchy over a capitalist population, economically succeeding by exploitation of their own people and minorities.  Essentially Communism and Socialism are attractive to those who see no God, but think they are best qualified for the job. Using the power of a collectivized government, they seek to make improvements in the world. They do not make anything better, but, they do blindly inflict damage to that of which they remain blissfully unaware. Consequences mean little to them but they do find much to praise themselves for. Yuri Bezmenov was a Soviet agent who defected to the West in 1970. He had some interesting interviews in which he described both the official Soviet plans and objectives, as well as, his own observations in working to subvert various governments and societies. He had commented that if any of those agents they encouraged to subvert their own government were actually successful, they would be the first ones to be liquidated, because they were too dangerous to keep around. What makes those that agitate worthy of death to their communist sponsors is that they live to criticize, tear down, and foment discontent. They are very useful to destroy from within, but those that would impose a new order do not want them to continue running amok.  We find these people today still being formed in colleges. The age 18-22 is ripe for the formation of the social activist. Not yet being invested in their own lives, these young people can dedicate themselves to a cause that will inflate their pride, make them feel superior, and gain popularity with their peers. Whether demanding women have the right to kill their children, fighting to prevent perverts from feeling imposed upon, inciting blacks to burn their neighborhoods, or advocating for international issues like wanting to kill the Jews, there are many options for those led to social activism. The 1960s saw an intense rejection of parental culture and values, in colleges. Today there are few values to reject and often parents have provided socialist values.   Perhaps college students are so vulnerable to leftist indoctrination because a week after their parents move them into the college dorm, they discover their mini refrigerator is out of food and to replenish it will take money. It can seem very unfair. Those who, instead of going to college, went to welding school or learned to be a dental assistant seldom followed a path of liberalism, perhaps because they were too busy with reality to have their egos so inflated. Few consider that in their zeal to attack and tear down, there is little of creating and building up. As most age out of active activism, they usually carry their past glories (protests of foot stamping declaring “we don’t like it") smugly as a badge of honor advancing the cause of justice. This delusional state often grows with the years. These people permeate corporations the government, and academia. They have a huge impact on society and continually push issues and agendas that are harmful. They are attracted more to liberal causes and issues because those that programmed them in college had that intention. |
