Here’s the thing; You do not believe in Capitalism, you believe in Western hegemony even over your own country. If Capitalists truly believed that Capitalism was a superior mode of production, then why isn’t every Capitalist in the world right now taking to the streets in protest against America’s offensive against the Venezuelan government’s ability to trade in the global oil market? U.S. forces have been encroaching on the Venezuelan coast for weeks now and gunned down a civilian shipping boat, murdering 11 people and claiming it was smuggling drugs to the U.S. with absolutely zero evidence.
Relentless Interference in Socialist Nations
This is after years of U.S. gunships hijacking Iran-bound Venezuelan oil tankers and diverting them to Florida, thereby interfering with Venezuelan oil trade with its global customers who buy their oil.
Venezuela has the world’s highest proven oil reserves.
If Socialism was such a demonstrably weaker mode of production that collapses under its own inefficiency, then why does the U.S. and NATO always fuck with Socialist countries unrelentingly? Why won’t they allow Socialism to collapse on its own accord?
If socialism is really so weak, why not allow it to fail on its own?
If I want custody of my kids because my estranged partner is an alcoholic and an unfit parent, why the fuck would I spike her drinks, sabotage her, and keep fucking with her life instead of just standing aside and allowing the courts to come to their own conclusions about the obvious? To paraphrase American-born Pan-African scholar, John Henry Clarke: inferior things fall into an inferior position and remain there without help from anyone else.
NATO’s Fear of Socialist Success
If Socialism is so inferior, why do you want to miss out on a great opportunity to show the world how inferior it is by simply allowing Socialist states to collapse in front of the world’s eyes? This would do wonders in terms of winning over not only people of the world, but even the natives of the Socialist countries to Capitalism—more than any paid piece of anti-Socialist propaganda or military incursions and coup d’états. Could it be that NATO, which was established specifically to stop the re-emergence of Socialism in post-WW2, cannot, even for a second, afford the emergence of a successful Socialist country that might inspire and spark global Socialist revolutions—even from within their own countries?
