Well, that hasn't been effective.

Unless, of course, this "liberalism" is a front for "socialism" which itself is a front for a corporatocracy that makes people increasingly dependant on the state and corporations.

The workers don't usually own the means of production in the US, so I'm afraid it can't be socialism, but there is so much harmful pro-corporate regulation that I wouldn't call it capitalist liberalism either. In my experience, most groups that claim to be an ideology just end up using a harmful, wildly distorted version of it.

the way i see it, and i might be repeating myself, communism is applied satanism. just to keep all the other isms out of the way and so to be able to see the forest through the trees

Oh shiat, bro!?

I hear what your saying! The problem is that damn Satan forest resides in a low elevation Satan authoritarian-pedo-canyon, with a border with all of the other forests.

So it's not quite an issue of not seeing the forest through the trees.
The problem is that the forest of Satan, is hidden behind the forest of ideology and authoritarianism, etc.

People can't see the forest, through all of the other forests...

The way forward it's a grassroots inspection of each forest, and aggressive seeding of ethical justice forest.
I'd advise against rooting out bad forest, as that's a dangerous game, and the forest slopes are slippery...

They want you to think the NWO is heading towards communist dystopia. In my opinion, the NWO will be seen as a gift for those who can not see. A way out. The NWO will be faux-communism but I truely think they have something bigger in store.

This will be on my wall when I've got my printer working. (So many cables!)

Examples:

  • The "Union of Soviet Socialist Republics", or "Soviet Union" – an authoritarian malevolent (or at least ethically questionable) dictatorship where virtually everything was owned, not by the state, but by the dictator. Originally derived from Marxism, adapted by a minor political party to fit a pre-Industrial Revolution society, adapted by the minority faction of that party to be a rebellion of them, not of the masses, adapted by Lenin to not cause the country to collapse, adapted again by Lenin to not cause the country to collapse by force (with some Secret Police becoming a little more obvious), adapted again by Lenin because force wasn't working and the country was still collapsing, adapted by Stalin repeatedly to make himself into a god-like benevolent figure at the expense of literally everything. They replaced an incredibly incompetent benevolent-but-out-of-touch king with a neutral dictator, who then died and was replaced by an in-touch incompetent malevolent dictator.
  • … all of my other examples are current events, which I don't want to comment on.

Corporatatocracy is a front for oligarchy.
