I agree.
The contrast in mindset between 1917's Bolshevik and today's socialist is very different, and I think it will play itself out differently.
In 1917, it was sold as a class struggle - there was no economic mobility to speak of. A serf would remain a serf for 95% of cases. They were told "You have nothing to lose" and it resonated with them.
However, today's youth are in opposite circumstances. They are the inheritors of several generations of prosperity. The heavy lifting was done before they were born - for the majority of youth, they see no value in hard work as they already live very privileged lives (to borrow a term) They are nihilistic because they can find no meaning in a world where everything is easy access and instantly available. They collectively have more economic mobility than any other previous group of people on planet Earth in recorded history, yet they feel this boredom with what they perceive as 'traditional society' that soon turns into contempt.
This is part of the reason why they are so susceptible to stupid social justice causes. Most of the topics we hear about (Wage gap, microaggressions, toxic masculinity, the list goes on) are simply made up problems that could only be quantified in a world where suffering (as classically defined) is nearly non-existent. The youth of today are a generation of coddled children.
The difference between a 1917 Bolshevik and today's pinko is that today's commie sympathizer has a lot to lose economically, they just don't realize it. Most of them are from middle class white families, so the damage will be devastating once it begins.
Excellent comment. Having spent the better part of the past three decades in Asia the contrast between westerners and Asians is telling. In countries like Indonesia, the Philippines, Thailand etc there is a hunger to do well, to work hard, to improve one’s position. There is no desire to pursue social justice causes. Westerners have, to a large degree, gotten “fat and lazy” so to speak.
You think the left will accuse the MAGA people of being commies?
I know of the quote from Rules for Radicals about accusing the enemy of doing what you are doing, but even in clown world, that doesn't make any sense.
Make no mistake, commies are on the rise, but they are firmly on the left. They don't want a nation of people like the Nazi's did. They want full dictatorial control of you and your property, which is right out of Stalin's playbook.
This is what is so maddening. I try to help these people see this but it's like their amygdala takes over their entire brain. They go into fight or flight because for whatever reason they are unwilling to consider that they could be wrong. And so the lie lives on.
To be fair, low information people (voting for Trudeau is symptom #1) likely couldn't even explain the labels they are accusing you of.
