Only if you reproduce like rabbits. And lets be fair, few here are getting any.
Treating a science as a religion :visible-disgust:
Nobody cares what Pasteur would have think of today’s microbiology, he didn’t know about viruses, we do now. But of course he was a great scientist of his time.
And no, the progress that has been made in microbiology since Pasteur’s time is not “revisionism”.
Socialism absolutely functions as and is treated like a religion for a lot of people. Denying that is ignoring reality.
Obviously not because that leads to complacency and delusions that don’t help anyone. “Communism is inevitable” is just end of days evangelical crap for leftists.
It kind of has to. An economic system has to work on a sort of faith in the whole scheme. That can be faith in collaboration or faith in capital or faith in the crown and so on. Faith being a believe in something you have no control of and no real ability to predict.
Yeah I know, it’s a nice joke; but I wanted to start a discussion about how a lot of people treat historic personalities as messias and shit.
Meme doesn’t work as well as the one about Christian sects because Marx didn’t claim to be handing down the infallible word of God.
Where are people saying that Lenin/Marx were infallible? The outlined the existing structures of power incredibly well. It’s not like they’ll always be relevant, just in our current time, with the current power structures, their model is still incredibly applicable to revolutionary movements.
This is not needed when we have already perfected Jucheism.
