JUST PHILOSOPHISING ON - THE STRUGGLE AGAINST CAPITALISM AND ITS COMPARABILITY PARADISICAL RELIGIONS. PART 2.

 

The quintessential element or aspect of similarity of comparability, is in the fact that neither of their forces or community, will ever achieve their perceived 'end state.' Their nirvana or eurica state or moment.

This is not a philosophical position I have come to suddenly or by way of any proverbial 'Saulist conversion.' It is, I believe, the result of time, events, study and analysis. 

What has led me to put the proverbial 'pen to paper with this post, is hearing the veteran United States Senator, Bernie Sanders, extolling on his most recent 'anti-capitalist' project, in which he argues that "It's OK To Be Angry About Capitalism."

Upon having heard that this is BS' most recent offering on what I know to have been a life long campaign of his, and the radical role he has performed in election campaigns in the United State in presidential elections since, say 2000. 

I found myself asking me questions I do not have the opportunity to ask Bernie. 

Questions such as, Bernie, has it taken you all this time to come to the conclusion that "its ok to be angry about capitalism"? 

Questions such as, Bernie, is it not too late to be only now 'getting angry with capitalism', and, Bernie, how is getting angry with capitalism going to defeat it?

Questions such as, Bernie, you are now 82 years old; is this book to be your legacy to the struggle against rampant and pernicious capitalism? 

Questions such as, Bernie, should you not be setting up campaign, a movement to continue to fight for what you have been about?

And so, it seems to me, that, looked at objectively, the life of Bernie Sanders might be better and more accurately considered as evidence of the limitations and futility of the struggle against pernicious or even traditional capitalism.  

To be continued!
