A Few Words On: Capitalism
Capitalism, like an undying retro-virus, is able to spread through the hearts and minds of easily corruptible and weak men and easily consume their greedy bodies into a horde of money hungry fascists. While capitalism isn’t the only threat in the world, it is one of the most – if not the most – deadly forms of thinking known to the human. Capitalism – by definition – is the exploitation of the lower classes – the workers/proletariat – for the profit and good of the upper and owner classes. Now, unless human common law changed since I woke up this morning, this goes against the common though of man’s bond and instinct to become comrades with one another.
Capitalism was born in a time when the only choice was peasantry or imperialism. Either live in total destitute, or be beaten down by feudal lords. From a lower class of the feudal society sprang the belief that ‘Hey! We don’t have to be a king to be filthy rich!’. Thus, capitalism was born. The capital class was born. Out of the upper-middle class, sprang forth the mob of greedy men and women willing to do anything for another cent.
Capitalism has spread much like the Bubonic Plague did in the Dark Ages. It festered it people and rodents, allowing them to transmit the corruption farther, allowing it to multiply exponentially. If the people do not stand up for what they truly believe in deep down, then this virus will continue to spread until the entire world collapses upon itself in a disaster of bloodshed and greed.
Now, I’m not saying to completely abolish the government and capital class. As of now, the ability is drawing near to where we will though. We are at a time when political dissent is growing amongst the youth and workers of the world. Insane domestic and foreign policies put forth by imperial-capitalist nations are causing unrest. The banning of certain human rights and the persecution of those who don’t agree with its banishment has caused even more hatred. When the time comes, I merely ask for my comrades to be ready to ally with each other, whether they be socialist, communist, or anarchist.
My fellow man, a time will soon be near when the working men and women of this planet will be able to finally grasp the chalice that was once so far away. The chalice of choice, of the correct way, the chalice of the right and uncorrupt way of thinking that does not allow profit for a single class, the chalice that will not allow any man to destroy your ideals of justice, the chalice is that of total, utopian freedom.
As of now, we are at a time when history has come around its general loop, only this time, in favor of the workers. This time, history is on our side. This time, no capitalist can hold us back as long as we are willing to push ourselves forward and refuse to give in to any form of oppression, persecution, or treachery.
