I watched it and didn’t think it was very brilliant. The film was poor in that it left out so much of the failures of Socialism/Communism. While the narrator tried to point out the failings of the film there were very many he missed.

In short Capitalism allows the freedom of choice in most walks of life, Communism/Socialism takes away freedom and leaves all decisions to a board somewhere or a dictator somewhere.

Socialism can be made to sound good but only if you tell lies. The problem with Socialism is that we are not ants or bees we are are all individuals, very different from each other. Because we are human we suffer from human nature and suffer all the mental problems of humans. We are naturally selfish and always want to work less than the next guy because we think we are worth more.

Until we are all able to be like the horse in “Animal Farm” Socialism will never work because we all want to be the Pigs.

If you think Socialism is a good system you definitely need to read “Animal Farm”.

Thanks, arm-chair critic. It was a 15 minute video debunking a viral 15 minute video... so of course I can’t include every single example.

Lighten up, Francis.

Steven made a brilliant rebuttal to the stupid pro-Karl Marx video and he did it with captivating humor.

After watching it, I want to sit down and have a beer with him and continue laughing at the smelly collectivists.

You seriously underestimate the value of mockery in gaining the upper hand against the stinky ones.

Steven, you are the best!
