years of research and investigations into the Chinese Communist Party.
We’ve been hearing a lot about Socialism and how an alarming
percentage of Americans in their 20s who were polled indicated that they wanted
to see Socialism introduced to America. In this video, he aims to clear up any
misunderstandings we may have about any “difference” between Communism and
Socialism.
What is Communism? Karl Marx described it as a social state,
where all hierarchy, all morality, all tradition, all belief and all social
structures have been annihilated. It not only aims to destroy morality, culture
and beliefs but to even to wipe out the memory of such things, by destroying
national heritage, down to each person’s perceptions of history and the world
around them.
Marx and Engels explained this goal very clearly in their
writings. In The Communist
Manifesto, they write, “Communism abolishes eternal truths, it
abolishes all religion and all morality.”
Marx believed that societies develop along five stages, starting
with the primitive society, that he called Primitive Communism., which develops
into Feudalism and then the system of trade he called Capitalism.
After Capitalism, Marx proposed a new system would follow, where
the state has seized control of all means of production. He referred to that
state as Socialism. He believed that Socialism would naturally collapse,
leading to the final goal that he called Communism.
When Marx and others called for revolution, they were calling
for the creation of a Socialist government, believing of this political system
of totalitarian control or the “dictatorship of the proletariat” would be able
to drive society rapidly towards the goal of Communist moral and social
desolation. Socialism was merely the system of state dictatorship used to
achieve Communism. It was the political system, while Communism was the
envisioned goal.
In the days of Marx, many people who believed in this system
used the words “Socialism” and “Communism” almost interchangeably, to describe
their goals. The only difference was that of process and intent. When Marx
proposed these theories, there were not yet any so-called Socialist or
Communist systems. Both of these were proposed concepts from the same group of
individuals.
In the book Communism,
Bryan Caplan states that, “Before the Russian Revolution of 1917, Socialism and
Communism were synonyms. Both referred to economic systems in which the
government owns the means of production. The two terms diverged in meaning,
largely as a result of the political theory and practice of Vladimir Lenin.”
Lenin referred to Socialism as a stage of state Capitalist monopoly needed to
establish Communism.
Philipp says that the so-called Nordic model of Socialism has
only remotely worked because it maintains Capitalism as its business model.
Socialist regimes and their attempts to realize the destructive goals of
Communism in the last century have caused the unnatural deaths of at least 150
million people.
