My problems stems from the fact that the initial post is just statements with no fact behind them. This, to me is as nutty as the morons who think 9/11 was an inside job. Im fine with labelling alot of them socialists but I am well educated enough to understand the difference between socialism and communism. According to everyone here, they would classify all of europe as communist right now, which is just ridiculous.
I will look up the pink swastika though, always enjoy new things to read.
And someone else said I watch too much MSM? Really? That is as opposite as you can get, infact I get all my news here and I formulate my own opinions on matters rather than have some dropout pundit tell me what his opinion is 50 times over until it gets imprinted in my brain.
“but I am well educated enough to understand the difference between socialism and communism”
They’re labels for very similar ideologies. And there remains quite a debate about what the difference is.
It is a lot like Wiccan’s being labeled Satanists by Christians. From a Christian perspective, idolaters like Wiccans are worshiping demons whether they are aware of it or not. They take offense at it because they reject the Christian view.
Communists and Socialists have been on opposite sides of wars, but at the heart both reject the law of God: Thou shalt not steal. Implicit in God’s commands are the right of ownership. In Christianity, the class barriers are broken within the church (or should be), but are still recognized in the natural realm of say employment, finances, etc. And giving is encouraged but voluntary.
What we see today is an aligning of many disparate views where all share a common anti-Christian thread.
For example, feminism by every definition should oppose China’s one-child policy or things like the exploitation of girls by pornographers and pimps. They don’t though. They also rarely call out Islam for abuse of women.
Feminism has become an anti-Christian religion, or face of a larger anti-Christian religion that has adapted itself to many philosophical views even on the right.
Most of the isms end up high-jacked by anti-Christians even if the original goal had something in common with Christianity. For example, the goals to help the poor, to protect the weak, to feed the hungry, and to enact just laws are twisted beyond recognition by the left.
But back to my earlier comment, if you haven’t read the Pink Swastika, I think you’ll find it both interesting and eye-opening.
