It was discussed in the context of Marxism and its advocacy for socialism and a totalitarian government to redistribute wealth, a system that historically has led to widespread misery.
Marxism is is a philosophy. It was propagated by Karl Marx. Obviously, it's the foundation of communism. But but it advocates it. It it it views history through a lens of class warfare.

Marxism is is a philosophy. It was propagated by Karl Marx. Obviously, it's the foundation of communism. But but it advocates it. It it it views history through a lens of class warfare.
And it calls for a revolution. Marxism. It's an approach to history. It's an approach to government. But it and it advocates socialism as its economic system.
So socialism is just the economic arm of Marxism. It's but. Marxism also consistently says we need actually a phrase, I think it was Lenin used a dictatorship of the proletariat, which is inevitably.
To get to Marxism, you have to have a totalitarian government come in and take the property from the people who have it. And what happens every single time is the Marxist who have power. Live like kings and everyone else lives in misery.
So when someone is a Marxist, they are advocating for the principles reflected in the Communist Manifesto that Karl Karl Marx wrote that advocated for Marxism anyway.

So before we get into capitalism itself, give me a little bit of your bio for the people that maybe have not read it because it's quite extraordinary and pretty much explains exactly why you care about the things that you write about.

The Communist Manifesto was compared to the US Declaration of Independence by Google's AI, suggesting that they are equally important depending on one's perspective. It was also mentioned as a book that was a part of the demoralization process and Marxist takeover of the country.
Um, you know, when we look at like the communist manifesto and we look at Sal Alinsky's books, um, and we look at Marx and Marxism and all of these things, part of taking over an existing nationalist society, because that's what America is. America is a nationalist society. It always has been. You have to remove the pride that people have in their culture and in their country.
And so when we break it down like that, uh, it's very obvious that part of the demoralization process and part of the communist, uh, Marxist takeover in this country, which started many years ago with the removal of the, uh, pledge of allegiance from the classroom and, you know, the demonization of that symbol, so to speak, et cetera, et cetera. That started 25 years ago.
And we look at the communist manifesto and we look at Sal Alinsky's books, um, and we look at Marx and Marxism and all of these things, part of taking over an existing nationalist society, because that's what America is.
And if you live in America and you believe in freedom, you would say the declaration of independence is our most important document.
So I don't really see a problem with how they're saying it. Do I disagree that, you know, the communist ideology as a whole is for fucking idiots? Yeah, absolutely.

You read the book. The longer that we the longer that we refuse to acknowledge. How what it is, the more ground they gain, right?
if you read these things that it tells you in the book exactly you you will read the book and be like, shit, holy shit.
