Karl Marx Genius Of The Modern World

Again, communism and its related philosophies take away individual liberties with authoritarian centeral governments and no one on this thread has shown a single example where that is not true. Not a single one.

Whatever its flaws, capitalism demands everyone be responsible for themselves and do something with their life to survive by empowering individuals. It may sound brutal but its liberating and i wouldnt trade my individual rights for all the nanny states in the world.

Less government. More personal freedom. Screw commies.

@phizzy-

The last capitalist we hang shall be the one who sold us the roPe- marx

great. Lazy ass commies cant make a rope so they steal one and use it to hang the maker.

or how about:

But modern bourgeois private property is the final and most complete expression of the system of producing and appropriating products, that is based on class antagonisms, on the exploitation of the many by the few- marx

so owning private private property is explotation? And who should decide where i live... the politburro? The whole philosphophy is riddled with contradictions and grandiose ideas that amount to one thing: subornination of the individual to a select few in power, the very thing marx claimed to rail against.

No thank you. Having cited his own words im quite content to say "hell no" to communism.

Tony Morris Shows Off Engraved Gold Ring with Turquoise Birthstone(?)

by Funchback in

the july jw broadcasting camera zooms in on tony's ring at around the 8:30 mark here:https://tv.jw.org/#en/mediaitems/latestvideos/pub-jwb_201707_1_video.

maybe it's not a big deal.

maybe it is.. in my opinion, it's being kind of flashy.

_Morpheus

When the gb take photos i shrug and say its only human kindness and fellowship... when tight pants tony wears a huge ring its a "showy display of ones means of life" by "one of christs brothers" who is supposed to be a humble man. Just have some sense and a little class and take the damn ring off when you know your gonna be on camera

To kill or not to kill

by Chook in

how many jws would kill a violent rapist in there home or protect their family with lethal means .

the one thing i love about the usa is the right to defend oneself with lethal force in their own home.

it's not that i want to kill someone but better them dead than my children..

_Morpheus

John davis, you are 100% wrong. No state in the union says you have to retreat IN YOUR OWN HOME. In public, yes of course, in many states. "Stand your ground" became famous (or infamous) during the george zimmerman trail but those laws have no bearing on home defense.

Dutch conventions organized like circuits

by Gorbatchov in

jw
friends

here in holland jw.org is organizing for the first time the yearly conventions like circuits.

the whole summer the new convention hall is used for small group conventions instead of 10.000 seat external halls.. it keeps the money in the organization.

not renting external buildings.. the 29.000 witnesses here are divided now into 2.000 seat audience.. g..

_Morpheus

Its interesting gorby, here in the usa the convention i picked my daughter up from was also all the same circuit, although held in a typical larger arena. Peak attendance was only 6k though, whoch is much smaller than normal.... this seems to be the new norm. Please dear thor make them stop the traveling crap!!!!

With no new releases i heard more than a few grumble that the effort wasnt worth it anymore

Anyone read the latest Awake (on the supernatural)?

by LoveUniHateExams in

just read some of this latest awake on the org's webshite.. it begins by talking about the 'supernatural' - wizards, witches, vampires, etc.

- their popularity and why they might appeal to people.

then it goes on to state the wt belief that someone is 'behind it'.. now, i like a few horror/scary films - when i was a kid, i always actually liked being a bit scared by them, tbh.. the silence of the lambs, a nightmare on elm street (1984), the ring, the witch, the thing (1982) and a few others are all great, imo.. they are just genres and subgenres of film, that's all.

Damn it uni! Spoiler alert!

isnt nice to see the governing body being so humble, meek and not seeking their own importance?.
