The world is divided into two groups :
● People who have Creator endowed rights*, and
● People who want to take them away for their own benefit.
(* rights to life, natural liberty, personal liberty, inherent powers, absolute ownership of private property, privileges and immunities not dependent upon consent, etc. )
Collectivists, by any other name, seek to deny endowed rights to absolutely own land, tools, labor and the fruits of that labor and want all things to be owned by the glorious State.
We're always told by Communists that Communism never succeeded because "it was never implemented properly" or something to that effect.
This feels a lot like the arguments that people make for Gender Equality and other variations of Equality Of Outcome.
For example, I heard a statistic recently that 147/150 of the unicorn startup companies (startups valued at over $1 billion) today are founded by men and the remaining 3/150 are co-founded by husband-wife couples.
This is because "we still don't have equality of opportunity"?
Like the communists, if you put these folks in total control, the executions would begin in about five minutes. After a few weeks, they would then start turning on their own.
As a wiser man than me often says, "The path to utopia is always marked with blood."
Today's focus on gender/sexual identity would be completely alien to a communist of a century ago.
It would be completely foreign to communists in China or Cuba in 2019. Yes, there are obvious similarities, but SJW dogma is so much worse in theory than communism in theory. At least communism didn't blakanize people based upon immutable characteristics as it was conceived and at least it was based upon some valid facts and assumptions, like the effects of divorcing people from their labor or the state of anomie brought about by industrialization. The SJW ideology is based upon various falsehoods or fanciful notions of "systems" that oppress.
Communism doesn't work without a bad guy to point out.
