Darwin not only supported the survival-of-the-fittest ideology, but even https://crev.info/2019/03/darwin-china-communist-holocaust/ When an environment is slow to change then survival of the fittest applies. But if an environment is dynamic then its survival of the most adaptable. If an organism is neither fit or adaptable but social, then the help of its society enables them to pass on their genes. For one country to come to dominate the world then eugenics and selective breeding would allow them to emerge as the best over time. Thats what Hitler tried. He took the first steps in engineering the German people as the master race. As a result eugenics and selective breeding are currently looked down upon. I suspect that will change when we discover aliens because if we dont give all humans an IQ of 500 we will quickly get conquered.

ellapenella Posted November 18, 2019 Author #5 Share Posted November 18, 2019 (Quoting Jacob Prasch) Socialism was seen as a failed experiment in the form of Warsaw Pact Nations. People in Hungry, Poland & Romania they hate communism, they hate Socialism, they don’t want it.They know what it is,and they know it didn’t work. While people in Eastern Europe give those things up people in Western Europe want to embrace them.(lol.)doesn’t make a lot of sense.If it didn’t work there why is it gonna work here?! Latin America Che Guevaro , Fidel Castro, Hugo Chavez; guess where they are now… What did they do? What did the Sandinistas do? Now again I know about the abuses of Capitalism I know there’s faults in every system;man has fallen ,but the fact that it’s given the most personal freedom and the highest standard living to most people despite its faults ...that’s not the issue… The issue is Socialism has never worked because it is predicated on a Darwinist Ideal :As Capitalism came from Feudalism they said Socialism would come from Capitalism and it didn’t happen Marx was wrong, proven wrong...Communism did not begin in Britain the first Capitalistic Country it began in Russia the last Feudal Country, everybody knows that but you weren’t allowed to teach it in the Soviet Union.They had to engage in revisionism and rewrite history because it didn’t fit the narrative… If anyone want to hear more you can listen in from 44 minutes in this video link … https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UeiKbQG1uDY The Sandinistas Ideology and Domestic Politics https://www.brown.edu/Research/Understanding_the_Iran_Contra_Affair/n-sandinistas.php 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the modern era the term far-right has nothing to do with political stance. Its instead become a derogatory term applied to those who are anti-immigration or racist. In reality both Hitler and Stalin were far-left. They both were autocratic and heavily regulated their societies which is what far-left actually means. As such Theocracies, Monarchies, Oligarchies, and dictatorships are all far-left types of government. Far-right actually means Democracy where all people make the laws (instead of one or a select few) and it means freedom (instead of a heavily controlled and regulated state). The reason why this term is misused is because if the population want anti-immigration policies then a far-right government would give it to them instead of trying to silence and control them. On top of being far-left Hitler was also a socialist and I really cannot believe I have to tell you that. It was the national socialist workers party led by one man, not a capitalist Democracy. Hitler eroded away the German class society, he expanded state healthcare, pensions, increased the number of state employees, he also nationalised various industries, poured money into education, and even introduced parenting classed for first time parents. The different between the Nazism of Germany and the Socialism of the USSR is basically farming and that Hitler didnt like Stalin. Apart from that, both were virtually identical to each other. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, they both had a moustache. Although Stalin's was bigger. Starting from the far-left it begins with rule by one person who totally controls and regulates society. Then as we move right more people hold power and society becomes more free. It ends with far-right where the whole population hold the power and there are virtually no controls or regulations. Thats all the terms mean, nothing else. Its the wrong use of the terms which you too have been sucked into. A racist, genocidal, and expansionist government, can exist anywhere on the political spectrum. These things have nothing to do with what is socialist or conservative or liberal. However the socialists are far more likely to be far-left as the redistribution of wealth usually needs to be forced onto a population.

Those who desire government control of our healthcare system are going to be terribly disappointed once they achieve their goal. It is true that real reform is necessary and an in-depth discussion with total honesty could move us toward positive changes but having a single (government) payer is not the answer and once it takes hold it will be too late. All it will accomplish is to reduce both the quality and availability of good care. Exactly the opposite of what is being promised. Maybe once the Left have broken this industry they can move on to forced conscription of doctors and nurses. Cool, huh? Force them, under penalty of law, to serve a number of years at their specialty for cheap wages. Healthcare workers in America are just like every other person. They want to earn a decent living and put in the time and expense of becoming educated so they can have that success. Crush their wages at the same time you vastly increase their stress levels and you can expect all the best people to move on. Who will take the jobs then?

It seems also that every time a large HMO does a leveraged buyout of smaller clinics and country hospitals, they consolidate services, cut wages where they can and lay people off. Isn't that another aspect of the problem we are facing? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats why new laws need to include protections for workers. I know stuff like capping executive salaries is taboo but there really isnt a way to fix the system without some serious reprioritization. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
