    If we’re talking death cults can we include Islam and Christianity?

      Absolutely, some of them are the staunchest Zionists

        As fun as that is to say, capitalism has no reward for its fervent adherents after death. Nothing that would make its followers feel like they were doing people a favor by killing them. No capitalist utopia waiting on the other side.

          Yeah, but ‘line go up’ is just as compelling to those with lines already high up.

          Capitalism is a death cult because it puts a monetary value to living beings, be it people or animals. Wanna kill some people for profit? Just cut down on safety measures and if caught pay the legal fees afterwards…

        That’s like saying potatoes don’t have religion do you want to be a potato.

        What a stupid take. Because the official state religion is totally the only possible thing that makes a government good or bad

          Just because China enforces thought crime doesn’t make it bad! 1984 was just some dumb book. Banning the number “1984” from Chinese social media just proves it. /s

            My argument isn’t that the Chinese government is good, rather that their adoption of atheism isn’t the cause of them being evil.

              China has some serious skeletons, for sure, but if China is evil, is the US also evil? We export far more weapons and we have bombed far more civilians. We are actively funding the genocide of Palestine as we speak.

              Isn’t it weird how obsessed western media is with the ‘tank man’ photo when Greece used their tanks to crush greek college students to death and yet we aren’t even taught it?

                The global oligarchy is evil. The US is full of schmucks allowing themselves to be used by the oligarchy to commit atrocities… Same as China, same as Russia, etc. I suppose it depends where you draw the line for “evil”… Are you evil for carrying out evil orders or just the person giving the orders is evil? What about the person who feeds the person carrying out the orders, are they evil too? How about the bus driver who drives the cook to the place where s/he feeds the person carrying out the orders?

                If you take it far enough, one could say that as long as evil is allowed to occur anywhere on earth, we are all evil through complicity
