I know that modern day communism is basically a support group for middle class guilt, but it’s always interesting to see that in practice. Like, who do you think will be killing and dying on behalf of those rich people? It’s not going to be a billionaire pushing you out of a helicopter or breaking your strike. I think you should care a little bit about the starving people who will be on the other end of your barrels, if only in the service of your professed beliefs.
Please don’t pigeonhole me as a communist. I hold these opinions out of personal conviction.
I think, the differentiating factor here is that I don’t give a fuck about myself. If you kill me, who cares? I’m not gonna. I’m not saying, I wouldn’t flinch, if you put a barrel to my head. I’m just saying that I don’t consider it a particularly evil act to kill me in particular.
To take a contemporary example, I consider it much more evil to pump tons and tons of CO2 into the atmosphere, killing thousands of people, animals etc…
It’s not as direct as holding a gun to someone’s head, so you could argue that their intention isn’t as evil, but the effect is much worse.
And ultimately, yeah, in my world view, it’s never the poor who are particularly relevant in their evilness, because their lack of money severely limits their ability to be awful.
I genuinely want to hear you out here but I just need to make sure I understand you, are you saying you don’t think we’re acknowledging that the bourgeoise hires armies of reactionary proletarians?
If commies would “genuinely want to hear”, they wouldn’t be commies. Commies are the inherent evil in this world and must be eradicated, as by definition they don’t listen to reason.
