the decline and fall of ideology (1 Viewer)

[stamos]

Who here is a political atheist?

After reading all the prolix in this forum, i think that i might become one.

If your not part of the solution your part of the problem.

 

[stamos]

The problem is this:

You care too much about overthrowing a system that you can never hope to change.

 

[euripidies]

Ever heard of the word reform, but even then you cant make change alone so it no use becoming apathetic because the big bad world is too much its rather defeatist. Thats why people become apolitical because they see the world and they dont like it so rather then doing something about it they turn and hide.

the decline and fall of ideology i dont know about that i know alot of other commies and other politicaly awake people that arn't communist most are left wing though.

As a wise man once said, 'Communism sounds great in theory, but then so does wearing your underwear over your pants'...

Communism cannot exist in a 'pure' form. Humans are too selfish for any such system to emerge at the global scale. Just remember that the grass is always greener on the other side.

 

[euripidies]

Generator, communist hasnt left out a theory on human nature its called "Dialectical materialism". It covers many things I give many links for it in the communist thread you should do well to read it even if you dont agree with it, it's educational.

I'm not hiding; i'm being a pragmatist. If you care so much about the underclasses, make a career in caritas or unicef. That way you would achieve something concrete. Your convoluted posts achieve nothing.

 

[um..]

i agree with rebecca rojan-stamos on this one

"If you're not part of the solution you're part of the problem"?

What kind of bullshit is that? As 2 once said: "Im not ejaculating enough... and since you're not part of the solution you're part of the problem."

There are ALWAYS going to be people with different views on politics etc. You cannot change human nature, its just the way we are. I'd like to think of myself as a socialist but I know Im not one because my thoughts are varied and sometimes I support the thoughts of the opposition and sometimes I oppose them. So I don't know am I a political atheist?

yeah people will always want what is better for them and their loved ones

and since rich people generally have the most power, they will get it more often than not. and disguise it as a good idea..

*rumbles into thread*
It's my thread now!

 

[um..]

oooooo goody, are you going to liberate it?
*puts on hard hat, digs bunker*

 

[George W. Bush]

Does stamos have a past history of oppression of his thread? If so, certainly. Would you like some reconstruction contracts?

 

[euripidies]

Watch out if the liberation goes on for too long he will just drop the Nuclear weapons and be done with it.
