I am sure Niles Niemuth of the Socialist Equality Party can easily see that working class people know the truth about their own lives even when confused and deceived by the ruling class lying machine.
Quite independently of any one " leftist " political organization I have been a socialist all my life. It would take more than a few sophomoric quotes from a young right wing punk like Ben Shapiro to persuade me that I am wrong about the rottenness and the irrationality of the capitalist system .
Ruling class intellectuals invariably compare SOCIALISM - a real movement in history- something LIVING - with idiotic blue prints for a perpetual motion machine which , of course , " can't work ". Not even Mother Nature " thinks " that way : there is ALWAYS a struggle for existence. No DNA blueprint is declared DEAD ON ARRIVAL by some celestial engineering firm.
Where on earth does the ruling class permit SOCIAL-ECONOMIC experiments ? Like in Cuba ?
Well, WE know that capitalism does not work , not for us. Naturally the privileged class thinks that the world in which THEY are on top is the best of all possible worlds. If they were not atheists themselves, they would say that the American plutocracy rules by divine right. They just love for YOU to believe it !
Are we socialists superstitious in thinking that capitalism is not forever- and that WE can help push it off the cliff ?
