"It is the Marxists that want you to believe the psychopath claim, in their desire to stereotype capitalism as blind greed."
Oh but they have more then abundant evidence that capitalism was brought into being by war an conquest, not because it's some law of nature.

Albert einstein:
"The conquering peoples established themselves, legally and economically, as the privileged class of the conquered country. They seized for themselves a monopoly of the land ownership and appointed a priesthood from among their own ranks. The priests, in control of education, made the class division of society into a permanent institution and created a system of values by which the people were thenceforth, to a large extent unconsciously, guided in their social behavior.
But historic tradition is, so to speak, of yesterday; nowhere have we really overcome what Thorstein Veblen called “the predatory phase” of human development. The observable economic facts belong to that phase and even such laws as we can derive from them are not applicable to other phases. Since the real purpose of socialism is precisely to overcome and advance beyond the predatory phase of human development, economic science in its present state can throw little light on the socialist society of the future."

- ruskerdax 12y agoMarxists have all the evidence that Capitalism is brought into being by war and conquest, standing in stark contrast to every peaceful Marxist revolution that ended with such great results. If only Capitalists were as enlightened as Einstein, the highly regarded economist and anthropologist, who identified Capitalists as some primitive, predatory animal, we could finally evolve to see the socialist society of the future.
- orbifold 12y agoThe American population has been indoctrinated so thoroughly with regard to socialism and communism that beyond a small minority it seems pointless to discuss the subject with them. The mainstream political discourse is so far right to that of Europe even among young people that it's not even funny.
