All this because they believe Marxism is just so grand. Either they are willingly ignorant or they are too stupid to realize the unholy ideals of Karl Marx led to the deaths of 150 million people.
They don’t seem to like Marxism enough to move to a communist country.
I think they’ve evolved/devolved past Marxism as an economic system. For the Left, its puppet masters and sycophants, it’s about nothing more than control. Nothing more. Nothing less.
If anything, they want Chinese-style Capitalism. A select few get rich beyond their wildest dreams while everyone else eats dirt.
I have an old co-worker that was a Marine Security Guard in Beijing, years ago and he had the opportunity to do quite a bit of traveling around the country. All he said was, get outside the major cities and those people are dirt poor and eating sparrows and rats, to survive.
The Left wants The Hunger Games. Not sure if they want the killing contest, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they wanted that too. But they definitely want Panem and President Snow.
Marxism IS great for the few at the top... they have unlimited power.
But for ‘the people’ it’s hell on earth.
Which is why all the folks who love Marxism NEVER move to a commie hellhole. They WANT TO BE THE THUGS - NO LIVE UNDER THUGS.
I think they are too stupid to listen to anyone who has actually lived under socialism/communism/Marxism because they ignorantly believe that THEY will do it “right” and will somehow avoid the pitfalls of socialism.
