I would not consider myself a pure Atheist and I would argue there is always a place reserved within Socialism for religion, but the important question men have always been forced to ask historically is - 'what is the religion? what does it demand its adherents to believe? what does it advocate? - Religion is not just 'religion', they all have differences. The CPC in China, CPV in Vietnam & WPK in Korea does not & likely never 'will' have to deal with angry mobs of 'militant Taoists, Buddhists & Chinese/Viet/Korean folk-religion/Pagan believers' being hyped up on foreign-propaganda or being angered by the government teaching human anatomy and scientific cosmology or being angered by the sheer fact the government allows people of 'other' religions to practice - And though cynical to mention, 'East-Asian filial-piety' certainly does not hurt an incumbent government should they be good enough at governing. Why? The 'form' of these religions, for the most part, make them non-susceptible to these sorts of impulses. They are non-evangelical, generally tolerate the presence of those with 'other' religions - And tend even not to mind being 'ruled' in a governmental sense by those of other or 'no' religion. Unfortunately, while I definitely do respect the beliefs Socialists or anti-Imperialists who view these faiths as essential to themselves, I don't believe that same trend can be observed within 'Abrahamic' religion by and large. Judaism [*THE RELIGION*] and most of it's international bodies, though some utterly fringe sects exist that do not, by and large seems to view itself as interconnected with and inseparable from Zionism. Large sects of Islam, such as those who overcame the Syrian government and those abroad who supported the overthrow, have made clear they will *never* accept living under the control of 'secularists' or even in 'close proximity' to those of 'other religion' or those who refuse to follow Islamic law. - Which causes an immediate and irreconcilable contradiction. Christianity is so varied in scope, whether you're a 'liberation-theologist' or a 'reactionary-restorationist' essentially 'depends' on which parish you attend. But how can this be overcome? This is a quote from Anatoly Lunacharsky, the Commissar of Education & leader of the 'Proletkult' in 1920s Soviet Russia. Who was the dissenting opinion on the issue of Soviet state-Atheism "Scientific socialism, is the most religious of all religions, and the true Social Democrat [Communist] is the most deeply religious of all human beings." But what is Lunacharsky's 'religion' in that case? We quickly realise he does not mean Orthodox Christianity or Islam. He seemed to envision something similar to Robespierre's 'Cult of the Supreme Being', Feuerbach's theory of man worshipping man, or Comte's 'religion of humanity' - It would essentially use [to quote A'Crowley] - "The methods of science, the aim of religion" - Which is to say it would not profess or demand adherents believe anything that was provably *superstitious* - And it would be organised in the mold of and have a religious belief-system similar to a 'mystery religion', such as Masonry and it's offshoots or perhaps something such as the 'Magick' of Aleister Crowley. Being Russian, certain ideas like 'Russian Cosmism' were also intended to be implemented. So how could the Syrian Ba'ath party have potentially averted the disaster that befell it? Realistically, in my opinion two options were available, State-Atheism, or Lunacharsky's hypothesis. A 'Syrian Lunacharsky' would likely equate to something such as reviving the ancient semitic religion of the golden crescent through a state-sponsored cultural movement, countless monuments and ruins from this era dot the landscape and the pantheons of the Assyrian gods and what they represented is now *relatively* well known to us.

All assets of the federal reserve needs to be audited annually per federal law. And Ron Paul is an 89 year old man. I’m not sure if Ron Paul’s brand of Yellow-Black flag Libertarianism even really meshes with the GOP anymore.

RT @Psychonaut1001: @WotanPrince Soy-Nazis get upset at Kanye for the exact same reason they get upset at skinheads who stand on overpasses…

These people realise that there is quite literally no economic rationale to ‘colonise’ other planets right? Every resource we could get from ‘cracking’ Mars, we can simply extract at far less of a cost by repealing some environmental regulation.

@FA_Touadera OK, Well Trump normalised it, so I guess every president is doing a coin now.

@kenklippenstein Ken, Hakim Jefferies isn’t in charge. The Dems don’t hold the house

@WotanPrince You’re triggered as shit lmao. It’s National-Ye’ism now. And there is nothing you can do to stop it.

Soy-Nazis get upset at Kanye for the exact same reason they get upset at skinheads who stand on overpasses in (literal) brownshirts and Sieg Heil at at traffic and call them ‘Feds’ Because 99% of Neo-Nazis are cowards who would never put their actual face to the things they say for risk of losing their day-job - So when Ye, with just zero inhibition walks up and starts screaming he loves Hitler, they get angry because they feel impotent. Soy-Nazis have taken all the actual ‘fun’ out of being a Nazi. Modern Neo-Nazis are apparently meant to join some sort of cope power-level hiding political party called the ‘national alliance for preserving western civilisation’ or smth with 500~ members and waste 20 years of their life until it inevitably dissolves. What does Fuentes say in contrast? “Keep it fun!”

RT @orikron: Musk is about to shut down Radio Free Europe and Voice of America in the name of fighting the Far-Left. Thank you, Americans…

One of the biggest Neo-Nazi gimmick accounts on this website has utterly lost his mind and just spamming Naziploitation films, and pornographic films he watches.

@CDMorlock Well hell, Elon is currently saying that America should follow the East-German privatisation model so idk....

‘Treuhandanstalt’ was a system *imposed* on Eastern Germany by Western Germany to ‘feast on our corpse’ per the words of former SED officials. It sold fully operational steel-working plants and automotive-factories for (iirc *literally*) 1% or *less* of what their market valuation would have been - To owners who would then tear them down to sell the metal from the machinery as scrap and then flip around and sell the land to housing developers. East Germany’s living standards actively retrograded during this period from where they had been under the stagnating Honecker administration. China, Russia and Iran (Along with most of the world that chafes under US dominance) can only *pray* that the American administration is stupid enough to do something like this, effectively detonating a nuclear bomb over their own economy because their leaders believe their own Randian-Objectivist/Hayekian theories.

The story of scientology actually becomes more interesting when you realise that L. Ron Hubbard was an Aleister Crowley associate [Briefly being put in charge of the O.T.O. in North America!] and even just from looking at some of diagrams from 'Scientological' literature you can find floating around online, its very similar to the sort of thing you would imagine someone like Crowley or Robert Anton Wilson producing. Another Thelema spinoff that got somewhat out of hand, many such cases!

@Wilson__Valdez “He ‘radicalised’ people into voting for one of the two major parties of the American political system.”

@IramiOF *Obama almost won Missouri He came close enough he technically could have asked for a recount but since he safely won he just let McCain have it.

‘Our Industry’ This is what ‘industry’ has been redefined to in the western world. Making video-games.

@ZaidJilani ‘Protected the banks’ Why does everyone on here think Obama did the bank bailouts in ‘08, when he wasn’t actually even president until Jan 20th 2009? It was Bush.
