Yeah, it’s terrible how capitalists and their megacorps might not profit as much if that’s happening…
(which it isn’t these days btw; countries like the US and China violated bullshit british IP laws when industrializing, and they don’t really need to do that once they are industrialized)
It’s a tool that’s often used for imperialism, so while it’s not like it had “nothing to do with religion”, pointing at it instead of class society is kinda putting the cart before the horse.
Like Alsephina said, it seems like you’re still stuck in a religious mindset. The issue of religion will simultaneously be tackled by dealing with its root causes: class society and material conditions. As is what happened / is happening in socialist societies like the USSR, China, DPRK etc.
Palestine is being colonized for being a bridge between Asia and Africa, not for any “religious” reasons. Theodor Herzl, founder of the “zionism” was a racist colonizer who saw colonizing Palestine as bringing ‘civilization’ to ‘barbarians’ as the rest of Europe did when they were colonizing and enslaving Africa and Asia:
“We should there form a portion of a rampart of Europe against Asia, an outpost of civilization as opposed to barbarism. We should as a neutral State remain in contact with all Europe, which would have to guarantee our existence.” Source [II]
The difference now is that the US has been the de facto leader of the imperial core since WW2, no longer UK in Europe, hence the US being its main master.
Religions are a consequence of class society and a region’s material conditions. Seeing anything entirely through the lens of religion is not very materialist.
Lmfao this is the funniest thing I’ve read all week. What alternate universe are libs living in?
When/if a civil war or working-class revolution ever reaches the heart of the imperial core — the US — it will be after most of the world has overthrown capitalism to become socialist (assuming capitalism doesn’t kill us all by climate change or a nuclear war by then), not at the start of a hypothetical major war.
The highest managerial authority under the Taean system is the party committee. Each committee consists of approximately twenty-five to thirty-five members elected from the ranks of managers, workers, engineers, and the leadership of “working people’s organizations” at the factory.
