That's why I like a bottom-up form of Marxism that grows out of people favoring local businesses and credit unions and avoiding the national chains and banks whenever possible.
How is this even Marxism? Local businesses and credit unions are still pure 100% capitalism.
and there is no such thing as bottom-up Marxism. Can anyone point to such a system?
That said. Marxism cannot exist with an armed society. Once the people are disarmed, the powers that be will realize they are the only ones with guns. Bottom up, upside down, however you want to play at semantics, a new one percent ruling elite will be created. and since they have the guns, no one will be able to do anything about it.
Once any system owns all the guns, it creates a ruling elite.
In every instance, marxism has been ushered in with a bloody purge. Heck, the DUmmies get all excited at the very thought of a purge they control. A bottoms-up approach will be no different--its just semantics.
There is NO peaceful marxism. DUmmies known this. They revere the image of Che for this reason: Che is the face of the purge. they want to kill. They want it so bad they can taste it. Only that cursed 2nd amendment stands in the way.
