Capitalists reduced the indigenous population in North America by over 98 percent - from 14 million when Europeans first landed on the continent to fewer than 300,000 thousand by the end of the 19th century. In South America, the devastation wrought by capitalism was probably eight to ten times greater. We are already above 100 million. Capitalists killed and enslaved tens of millions of Africans

@CCCPSovietSoldier Thank you for pointing out that capitalism (a.k.a greed-ism) is responsible for such evils and not white people. Im so sick of people blaming the white man for what corrupt profiteers have done.

Marxists are the archenemy of nazis u retard, read about history next time instead if believing bullshit from a magazine.

[jcrowley1985]

War is only going on as a means towards destruction of labor.  Resource surpluses lead to prosperous people and prosperous people can't be exploited by those in charge. Thus you blow up the resources, you blow up the means that makes societies prosperous.

Just like what the Ministry of Plenty does in Orwell's 1984.

@bbphnix Have you read "The Hedonist Imperative" by David Pearce? I think you might find it interesting. Also read his "Utopian Pharmacology".

gentic improvement could be used to at leat reduce the problems that we have nowadays... on the social, economical, political, cultural levels etc....

maybe it sounds far-fetched, but this really is the ultimate potential of gentic engeenering.... this form of eugenics I support

[bbphnix]

I wonder what marx might have said about eugenics? I think eugenics could be the ultimate answer to ... many problems... in the sense that genetic engennering should be eprfected so the point where everything that makes humans intrinsically defective like greed, racism, bigotry, laziness etc can be corected at the gentic level... and passed on for future generations....well maybe not exactly like this... maybe this is changing what means to be a uhman too much.... but in one way or another
