Fascism communism socialism capitalism.. all spokes in the modern political wheel is how I kinda look at it....



A death wheel of sorts


It's all dealing with controlling..means of production... .The means of production includes two broad categories of objects: instruments of labor (tools, factories, infrastructure, etc.) and subjects of labor (natural resources and raw materials). The five modes of production refers to the theory in which human history is divided into the five progressive stages of primitive society, slave society, feudal society, capitalist society, and socialist society.


Is socialism about “government control of the means of production”? No, it's about workers' control of the means of production. Socialism is a broad specrum of (socio)economic systems which all share two characteristics: Social Ownership of the means of production and workers' control thereof.


Whereas in a nutshell capitalism is all about corporate patent protection s.... Leverage of market supply and demand. Business interest...

No political system is flawless IMO. Just different. It's all a shit sandwich no matter how you slice it

Election day tomorrow. I wonder if they do it the same way in Thailand. Looking forward to going down to the precinct and thanking the workers for being there. And filling out the old ballot!

Well already notified that my ballot has been counted in Cali, so that patriotic chore is done. Here it is a military dictatorship so any 'election' reflects the puppetmasters running things. My friend Elmer says,"Those with the pesos have the say-sos." Just stay in the middle lane and dont look for trouble.

You’re a good man, sambapati! A lot of people living halfway around the world wouldn’t bother to do their patriotic duty. And thanks for the info on the system over there. It’s always interesting to learn some of the details Of what goes on in different places. Take it easy brother!

 

[NotFrankster]

Personally I think counter culture and media are far bigger threats to modern society than any political partisan hacks besides possibly the fascist element

Plus I think party affiliation has more to do with your

Wait what patrot duty... I thought it involves military service not putting liar's and thieves in control

I was brainwashed by the military industrial complex all this time

Mom and I both voted. I may be impotent but voting is important. Myanmar also briefly had a quasi democracy controlled by the military, but then they imprisoned 'The Lady' and started shooting protesters. Never saw any kids with higher potential than my students -- hungry to learn and compete. Thanks for telling the workers they're doing a good job -- people don't do that enough.

 

[NotFrankster]

Yeah I didn't vote this time around. Need to get an address first. The property doesn't have any

Don't even have up to date id anyway

That’s democracy! Choosing the liars and thieves you want in control! And yeah if you’re in the military you’re probably brainwashed! L O L

Beautiful night out! Even down here. It’s always brighter and crisp or after it rains. Enjoy Frankster.

Well it was a long time ago. I was fifteen years old and drinking... Smoking... Fighting.. whoring.... . My parents thought the navy would be good for building character...

Good firm discipline... They couldn't provide. 1984 so off I went to kill all the commie like a good God fearing American

I worked with on aircraft carrier. AKA aviation ordinance

 

[NotFrankster]

When I qualified for the range I carried a 1911 with 60 grain in a .45 Cal casing. So the bullet wouldn't go through a man and blow up the bombs . Aim needed to be good also


I was charged with stopping any drunken disgruntled or discontented sociopath from blowing up the ship

So yeah I think they profiled my asfab scores. They trusted me armed with keys to the dungeon and indiscriminate explosives. On a nearly trillion dollar ship

My airborne reserve involved anti submarine recon in the P3 Orion

What a job! It sounds like it actually did do you some good. How long were you in for? I guess the days of the judge giving you a choice between jail or the Marine Corps, are long gone! But I imagine it did straighten up more than a few people at the time. If it didn’t get them killed! Now you almost have to have a degree to join.

I think you still have to simply pass the asfab and better score helps your rate. College helps you get a officers commission.... ECT


Today's military exploit impressionable boys and young men mostly... Especially poor ones

My uncle went into marine corps recon for horse theft in 1962. Died on memorial day 2013 with a gunshot to his brain cancer

I was troubled in my younger years but my bipolar disorder and schizophrenia started right after I got out.... It got better for some years and worse as I've got older


I need to get on some mushrooms . That should fix me

Thank goodness I never loaded up bombs that killed women or children. I became a pediatric and surgical nurse instead

Pretty wild ride!

All I am saying is give

a chance.
