How Does A MINORITY Have "SO MUCH CONTROL "Over A MAJORITY? (Why Isn't This CALLED OUT?)

[AlainLocke]

Communism cannot work because the human nature is inherently selfish, that's the biggest missing piece of the puzzle in the Marx theory. Karl Marx was a aristocrat who never worked in his life and spent his time to write bullshyt, all his ideas were pure utopia.

Human nature is not inherently selfish.

The greatest advantage human beings have over any species is the fact that we are highly intelligent and able to cooperate on a mass scale. We have nations and cities and businesses for a reason...

And Marx ideas were not pure utopia. They are probably the closest representation of how the human economy works and how capitalism works.

And Karl Marx was a journalist in London after he was kicked out of Germany...he actually did work...

Equal pay for genders is a myth that ignores reality.
Men work more hours than women so this increases their average pay rate.
Men seek out jobs that are higher paying, whereas in those same rated feilds women rarely try to persue
Women take time off their jobs for child birth, men don't, these skew women salary ranges as well, also they lose career positioning in doing so.
Women seek out lower paying jobs that are more flexible in time off, again lowering the average wage of women.

Livable wage, link minimum wage these laws disadvantage the poor and unskilled by driving up the wage to a point where they are not hireable because of their lack of value.
The better option for those is to remove wage floors and allow those people to work for what they can negotiate and gain some professional skills, even if they are nothing but soft skills and habits, rather than force them not to work at all.

IMHO.

this is a good scenario to take into account.

Communism was pure eutopia.
Where do you think the communist notion of "superman" developed from?
Trotsky himself said this

man will become incomparably stronger, wiser, finer. His body more harmonious, his movements more rhythmical, his voice more musical. ... The human average will rise to the level of an Aristotle, a Goethe, a Marx. Above these other heights new peaks will arise.

Lenin

“abolition of the division of labor among people ... the education, schooling, and training of people with an all-around development and an all-around training, people able to do everything. Communism is marching and must march toward this goal, and will reach it

This is pure utopianism.
imho

Most people are sheep

Capitalism.
Before that, feudalism.
Monarchies.
Theocracies.
Dynasties.
Minority control over a majority has been the majority situation for the last several thousand years, nothing new.
All you're doing in questioning while we aren't "calling out" several thousand years of anti-rule rhetoric.

 

[EndDomination]

True, and it's like only the millennials and some older folk are waking up.

Millennials are doing about the same as every other generation.
Just different circumstances, and different eyes.

So, we're going to make the same mistakes as our predecessors did?

Probably. I don't think anyone is bringing about full Socialism on the path to full Communism in this day and age.

This is NOT about race.

However, how does 1% of a population in the United States have so much control over 99% of the population in the United States When our government gets out of hand we are suppose to call the shyt out I mean, how the fukk does greedy people get away and fukk over the working and middle class? I was just thinking about that all damn day

Could you imagine EVERYONE having a prominent voice...that actually MATTERED? How would anything ever be agreed upon? Completed? There needs to be a very small ruling class. Everyone's opinion certainly DOES NOT matter and SHOULD NOT be taken into consideration by any means. We need to stop pushing this narrative.

I disagree and I'll tell you why. A ruling class becomes greedy like right now for instance. 6 corporations own the media now. There used to be 60 now it's 6. We need a fair share for everyone.

Absolutely not, but we can bring some aspects of Democratic-Socialism. Also, there's different types of Socialism. Plus, you have Libertarian Socialism.

What do you mean a fair share for everyone?

If you control the media, schools and banks you can control any group of people
