I am a Democratic Socialist who was born and raised, oddly enough, in Southeast USA, where i still live today. I am surrounded by religious, non-intellectual, bourgeois capitalist minded southern republicans who value the thought of profit, fearing their subjective ubiquitous god, and their hyper-standardism above human morality, which to me, is predicated on Altruism and Socioeconomic Abnegation. I have a minimal job that pays for my mere existence and the modern social and economic needs that come with it, any other money i have i look for ways to give back to my fellow humans, because i am thankful to just merely be alive and have air going into my lungs and blood flowing, allowing me to see, feel, hear, taste, touch, and smell my environment. I dont have any of the Capitalist Hyper-standard aspirations that are programmed into most Americans today, aspirations shaped by how our Conservative historians have convoluted the facts of world history to demonize Socialism and Communism. They took these revised "pseudo-facts" and put them into their textbooks, and programmed them into the minds of young people, and through generation after generation, these pseudo-facts have have spawned the aspirations and standards that have basically be hardwired into the genome of most Americans. The only "aspiration" i have is that i wish a revolution could happen in this country, an actual revolution in which Capitalism's immoral stranglehold on Society is burst asunder. Peace protesting will only get you so far, considering the fact that the Corporate Elite in America are not going to just look out of their windows and reverse 237 years of the immoral, profit-minded reprogramming of the human mindset to which their ancestors spent a lot of time, energy, and effort to conduct, just because a few people tape some cardboard signs to some sticks. That leaves the other option, a more aggressive, militant approach to a Revolution. I dont see me starting it, but if there was one in the works, i would join. I am tired of Corporate America trivializing the well-being of the workers who produce the very wealth that they want all for themselves, by doing it in the form of wages that are to the level of indentured servitude and high prices on consumer goods. Capitalism is ruining the moral fabric of humanity.
