Is WT "New System" Based on Socialism?

Does Socialism mean that the rank and file give to the GB and they just keep it and then loan it out to build Kingdom Halls?

Nope the WatchTower needs capitalism to survive. We all know Jehovah needs more money.

The Watch Tower world present and future is a Fascist dictatorship.

At the present and future time it's based on dictatorship.

Ultimate power in the hands of the GB. You cross them and you're dead

Life on paradise earth would be a totalitarian nightmare. Dubs are seduced by dreams of a free and easy life but the reality would be five meetings a week and field service forever and ever. Loud speakers in the trees and Kingdom Melodies on endless loop making Guantanamo Bay look like a boy scout camp.

Call it what you will, there's only one game in town and that's the seeking, maintaining and exercising power over the minds and lives of others. Apart from mass printing, it's the only area I know where Watchtower Society has genuine expertise.

Totalitarian socialism maybe.

The new system is more aptly the New Dark Ages. It is a totalitarian system, where everything you think, say, or do is what someone else tells you to. All about God using us for a specific purpose--acceptable treatment for a computer, not acceptable for a person.

How does the New Systemocracy resemble Socialism? I think Socialism involves everyone doing their part to support each other. After the bodies are buried, it's more like jehoho makes the peach trees grow and the underlings are on perpetual picnics.
