Let us not forget that US bankers were financing the bolshevik revolution in 1917 as well as Hitler's national socialist party a few years after that. This is well documented by the works of Anthony C. Sutton.

> What we have now is capitalism

No, it is not. Capitalism is a system of private property facilitated by voluntary exchange free from force, fraud, and coercion... I want your apple more than my dollar. You want my dollar more than your apple. We both win in this mutually beneficial exchange. Neither of us is beholden to the other. I am not forced to buy your apple and you are not forced to sell it to me.

When government comes in and demands tribute in the form of taxation where I have to pay more than your asking price or forces you to only sell certain apples the interaction is no longer free...

A relationship with any business is always voluntary. I am not forced to buy from or work for any business. I voluntarily choose to do so because I benefit. This is not the case with government which uses force and threats of force to make people conform to its will.

The US hasn't had a free market in 150 years(or arguably ever). Capital, trade, and industry are all now being controlled and subsidized by government... regulated markets arent free... this corporatist/socialist/fascist amalgamation we are now faced with is not capitalism...

> I would like to see some serious academics state otherwise.

Well, that obviously depends on their leanings. I know plenty of "academics" that concur with my position however. But it is no secret that most academics are leftists/socialists... this is precisely why there is such a misunderstanding on this topic... as this is what most are fed their entire education... that big bad capitalism is evil, and white knight government had to come in an save everybody from the market... and if it wasnt for government children would be working in mines and wed all have exploding toasters etc. etc. etc....

> As for the anti-establishment angle, I think socialism is pretty much that.

This is one of the biggest fallacies about political theory. That socialism is somehow a poor workers movement meant to stand up to the big bad capitalists. This is total rubbish. Historically, the financial elite have supported socialism whole cloth. These people are corporatists NOT capitalists. I would suggest Professor Anthony Suttons book "Wall Street and the Bolshevik Revolution. Socialism and its predecessor Mercantilism have always been the preferred apparatus of control for the financial masters. It is the free-market that creates the most wealth for all that must be demonized and suppressed because it creates a powerful middle class that challenges the status quo.

This is why to start a small business now literally costs 10s of thousands of dollars to comply with all the regulations, licenses, forced insurances, etc. Do you honestly believe they are just doing this to protect consumers? Yes, only someone that can afford a million dollar taxi medallion can drive a taxi because our wise overlords are just looking out for the public good....

> Government power is not that great in the face of global capitalism, I think you have all seen how easily individuals and companies have run rings around national governments, especially in terms of taxes and bailouts. The power in today's world lies in the hands of the ultra wealthy, which has been regaining strength since the post-war period.

This is EXACTLY why it is a horrible idea to have a powerful(or any IMO) government. It will always be wielded by the powerful to suppress and oppress. Corporations have nothing to do with the free market OR capitalism. Corporations are created by the state endowed with special government privileges (ie limited liability, tax and regulation exemptions, subsidies, grants, etc.) It is through the state apparatus that these companies/people gain a deferential advantage... In a free market all a business can do is offer you a product or service. Only those that are best geared towards serving the public interest rise to the top....

You were responsible for either appeasing, empowering or financing fascism and leninism.
And don't let other redditors be fooled, the Western powers threw even Western countries under the bus, like that one time British bankers did anything in their power to protect the noble independence of central bankers, applying their “gentlemanly” rules and so appeasing the Nazis one last time.

> invade the world

The Nazi's didn't invade the world and had no desire too. They were fighting a world war in different war theaters and fighting against an enemy that wanted to genocide them like their neighbors. https://imgur.com/a/xrie4N9. Hitler was embraced in France. He was embraced in Poland. Hell French soldiers were the last men defending his bunker. I'm not sure if you're being purposefully obtuse here or you're are just lost in the blue pill disinformation ocean built by the (((state historians))) version of history. You seem semi intelligent so I hope it's the latter because only one is fixable.

> Just like how the Nazi death squads rounded up Jews in Russia and shot them with their families doesn’t give me a pretext to go on a world crusade against the remnants of the ideology.

source on 'nazi death squads' shooting families.

> Is there evidence that Jews were responsible for the uprising? Can you show me some? I’ll analyze it if you do.

Well you can start with the early Jewish financier support for these revolutionaries.

And then where we go from there is endless. You can read about the Myth of German Villainy which talks about Jewish involvement before and after the war manipulating perceptions of events and history.

And this shit is not on top of Reddit yet after 13 hours, but Obama's lying ass stating that 'blasphemy' should not be banned is?!!! This is why I don't give a rat's ass about the ignorant masses, seriously! I care to fight for my family, friends, and those who do fucking care for their freedom from these tyrants and despots! All these neocons (most of whom follow the philosophy of Leo Strauss and are called straussians) and their rhetoric are always stated in exact opposition to what they believe themselves and their agendas; they love to be hypocrites and use reverse psychological means to project their insanity.

AIPAC is a orgnaization run by jesuits and zionists, and they've been using Israel as the base of operations to 'foment' conflict, war, and death in the middle-east or asia minor or the arab region of this world. Even real jewish rabbi's know that zionism is all but a farce not mentioned one time in the torah. Out of the so-called 12 tribes of jews, 10 are living in america, yet this zionist and jesuit propaganda continue to drill out media lies about the threat of the holy land shit - which does in fact belong to the palestinians who were living there first for the last couple of centuries or more.

All wars from the last century unto the present day were all fabricated and fomented by the jesuits and elites for corporate gains and power, including the big lie called 'the jewish holocaust!' video and book reference: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NyMVWVBmGVo and Antony Sutton's regarding wall street's involvement in these fake wars http://www.amazon.com/Wall-Street-Bolshevik-Revolution-Capitalists/dp/190557035X

u/hailmurdoch14 · 1 pointr/DebateFascism

The ultra-rich elite destroying Western Civilization are the Globalist/Capitalists. You have traitorous European 'royalty' like the House of Windsor, you have the Council of 300, the Trilateral Commission, the Bilderberg Group, DynCorp, etc, along with the source of money, the network of central banks run by the IMF and the Bank of International Settlements, and the World Bank. Down to the local branches like the US Federal Reserve. This cabal is made up of Jews and traitorous European Whites, who believe in a Globalist Technocracy, that sees national borders, national identities, etc., as arbitrary boundaries to the movement of resources and capital.


As far as the claim that Wall Street bankers funded the Bolshevik revolution, that is very well documented. Kuhn Loeb and Schiff had a vested interest in overthrowing the Russian Tsar, and also desired to erect an enemy for the American/Capitalist military industrial complex to churn against. I'll copy and paste some excerpts here, and link the source material below:


In 1905, while Russia was engaged in the Russo-Japanese War, the Communists tried to get the farmers to revolt against the Czar, but they refused. [Many of the leaders, including Lenin and Trotsky were exiled --ed].

After this aborted attempt, the Czar deposited $400,000,000 in the Chase Bank, National City Bank, Guaranty Trust Bank, the Hanover Trust Bank, and Manufacturers Trust Bank, and $80,000,000 in the Rothschild Bank in Paris, because he knew who was behind the growing revolutionary movement, and hoped to end it.

The Rothschilds, through Milner, planned the Russian Revolution, and along with Schiff (who gave $20 million), Sir George Buchanan, the Warburgs, the Rockefellers, the partners of J.P. Morgan (who gave at least $1 million), Olaf Aschberg (of the Nye Bank of Stockholm, Sweden), the Rhine Westphalian Syndicate, a financier named Jovotovsky (whose daughter later married Leon Trotsky), William Boyce Thompson (a director of Chase National Bank who contributed $1 million), and Albert H. Wiggin (President of Chase National Bank), helped finance it.

The Rockefellers had given their financial support after the Czar refused to give them access to the Russian oil fields, which were already being pumped by the Royal Dutch Co. (owned by the Rothschilds and the Nobel brothers) and giving Standard Oil plenty of competition on the international market. Even though John D. Rockefeller possessed $15,000,000 in bonds from the Royal Dutch Co. and Shell, rather than purchase stock to get his foot in the door and indirectly profit, he helped to finance the Revolution so that he would be able to get Standard Oil firmly established in the country of Russia. As the Congress of Vienna (1814) had shown, the Illuminati had never been able to control the affairs of Russia, so they had to get rid of the Czar so he couldn't interfere with their plans.

Leon Trotsky Returns from New York
Leon Trotsky (whose real name was Lev Davidovich Bronstein, 1879-1940, the son of wealthy Jewish parents), was exiled from Russia because of his part in the aborted revolution in 1905 and was a reporter for Novy Mir, a communist paper in New York, from 1916-17. He had an expensive apartment and traveled around town in a chauffeur-driven limousine. He sometimes stayed at the Krupp mansion, and had been seen going in and out of Schiff's New York mansion.

Leon Trotsky was given $20 million in Jacob Schiff gold to help finance the revolution, which was deposited in a Warburg bank, then transferred to the Nya Banken (Nye Bank) in Stockholm, Sweden. According to the Knickerbocker Column in the New York Journal American on February 3, 1949:

"Today it is estimated by Jacob's grandson, John Schiff, that the old man sank about $20,000,000 for the final triumph of Bolshevism in Russia."

Speaking of Banker Fronts - The Bolsheviks in Russia were funded - indirectly according to some sources - by bankers in London and New York. Even the New York Times admits that the Bolsheviks were given a loan in exchange for fighting against Germany, despite the fact that the Provisional Government at the time wanted peace. If that sounds familiar, it's because it's textbook US policy or carelessness. For instance, arming the Taliban to fight Russia and helping Iraq to fight Iran.

https://www.nytimes.com/1984/11/07/opinion/us-aid-to-the-bolsheviks.html

>To avert bankruptcy, the Provisional Government sought assistance from allies - America, Britain, France, Italy. Woodrow Wilson sent a mission to assess conditions and discuss aid[...]
>
>The key personality and leader was an elderly former Secretary of State, Elihu Root. A conservative Republican, Root undertook his assignment with reluctance, a patronizing attitude toward Russia and ignorance of changes taking place there[...] After the mission reached the capital, Petrograd (now Leningrad), Root talked extensively with the Kerensky administration but made no serious effort to contact non-establishment groups such as the Bolsheviks. After three weeks, he was prepared to recommend loans and credits. But there was one key condition - Russia must continue to fight Germany[...]To survive financially, the Provisional Government agreed. All told, American credits came to $325 million, of which $185 million was disbursed. Kerensky launched a new offensive against Germany in July. After initial successes, Russian troops retreated in disarray. The domestic political consequences were instant. Confidence in the Provisional Government plunged. The Bolsheviks gained and became a major force.

Even the Jerusalem Post had this to say:

https://www.jpost.com/Magazine/Was-the-Russian-Revolution-Jewish-514323

>The roughly three million Jews of the Soviet Union at the time of the revolution constituted the largest Jewish community in the world, but they were only around 2% of the USSR’s population. They were concentrated in the Pale of Settlement (a western region of Imperial Russia) and in Ukraine and Belarussia, where they were 5% to 10% of the population, whereas in Russia itself the 1926 census found only 600,000 Jews.
>
>As a group in the vastness of the USSR, they were one of the largest minorities, alongside Georgians, Armenians, Turks, Uzbeks, Kazakhs, Kyrgiz, Tartars, Moldovians, Poles and Germans. None of these other groups played such a central role in the revolution, although members of many of them rose to senior levels.

>I don't have to be right about anything on reddit. So, somehow, you have the answers. You! I must listen to YOU!!

Sure you do. That's why you keep commenting. And your mischaracterizing my comments as me claiming to have all the answers as well as insulting me just further proves the weakness of your argument.


>If it was the Communists that Kennedy was talking about, why wouldn't he have said it?

Because he did. Multiple times. Read the first few paragraphs. Again. I even took the trouble of highlighting in a previous post all the instances where he did talk about Communism.


Again, your problem is you spend a lot of time trying to reinforce your beliefs, so much so that you let emotion become a factor. Again, like a sophist.


>In my humble opinion, he was focused on the central bankers who have controlled America since 1913.

He was. And those bankers have ties to Communism. Read Wall Street and the Bolshevik Revolution by Antony Sutton, among other things.


>You may disagree with me, and that is fine. But, I will stick with my assumption until I am proven otherwise.

Look it up, this is main stream history. Its not something they are going to throw in your face on the history channel but it happened none the less. Our ancestors in the British aristocracy created socialism and communism and marxism as a way to liquidate the wealth of the only people who could oppose us. Then we basically enslave you in neo serfdom while we move off shore and suck all the wealth out vampirically. We also created the nazi's as a response ideology. Basically the two schools of though was socialism by force or by choice. Either way we have our way now, with pseudo intellectual college kids wanting socialism we have sold you on your own demise.

>USSR which was built on blood and suffering not only Russians, but also all other nations that were in their 'influence zone'.

As a lot of even Jewish writers have documented, Zionists and Stalinists hijacked the Russian people, murdering millions, and then the Zionists elements later fled West and to Palestine to hijack those populations.

Of course, the Zionist elements had economic backing from Wall Street and the City of London to perpetrate the hijacking of Russia, as well.

So blaming the Russians for what really amounted to a Zionist coup is like blaming the Palestinians for "terrorism" and "Islamofascism"...blaming the victims instead of the perpetrators.

>Communism is the antithesis to a banker dominated world.

You’re kidding, right? Who are the bankers? And who created communism? Hint: it has to do with Remphan.

>The claim that this is the end goal of evil secret societies is absurd.

The end goal is the jews ruling over a global empire of a mongrel race of miscegenated slaves, perpetually in debt to their “effendi” masters.

Communism achieves this.

>If we ever get anywhere close to a truly free society it’s going to be very close to communism.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHHHAHAHAH

>It’s the only sustainable way to have a society without exploitation.

“Let’s just slaughter literally everyone who even slightly behaves in a way that is contrary to our doctrine! That will work!”

>So can someone please explain this theory to me and why I shouldn’t dismiss it as bullshit.

How about because the bankers financed the communist revolutions in Russia? (Seriously, The Creature From Jekyll Island is a spectacular book) Why wouldn’t they? The revolutions were led by their own people.
