Capitalism and Communism, they are the same thing.

The past seventy years since the conclusion of the second world war with the fall of Berlin and the use of atomic fire to burn Japan's imperial pride we have seen the capitalist west and communist east fighting like cats and dogs. But upon taking a closer look I have come to a shocking realization, Capitalism and Communism are two sides of the same clipped coin. 


The first tenant of this theory of mine is the fact that both ideologies rob man of his teleological purpose, that being his purpose as granted by God. This strips man of his meaning such as God, sacrifice and honor. And turns value into an instrument as opposed to it being intrinsic. Because you become valued for what you produce as opposed to the traditional view of your value being you exist in the image of God. Man is further reduced under Communism to simply being a worker and or a producer and Capitalism further reduces man to a consumer. 


By different methods Communism and Capitalism reach oligarchy by means of concentrated power. Under Communism the government which is managed by a party elite comes to own all industry and resources, capital becomes a tool of the state and corruption is justified as a historical necessity. In Capitalism instead of a party elite we see industry and financial elite emerge, by means of market efficiency come to own all resources and industry and capital becomes their tool. This is then used to take over the government through things like lobbying, in the case of the U.S this was done through citizens united. The tech and market experts who comprise the American merchant class who are entrenched with the trump admin and allies is a sign of this. 


This leads to an elite who are insulated and view the people as units to be managed for the sake of productivity and profit. We see this now with the merchant class and its installed puppets of the managerial political class who speak of GDP as if it were God and want nothing more than to increase production as if it were a soviet factory quota.


The culmination of both of these systems is shared in that both create an oligarchy that creates a system where the vast majority of people are nothing more than alienated and spiritually homeless units of production who are easy to control. 


Communist and Capitalists may fight like ruthless old enemies but they both agree that a man's value is not from God. 


So, Capitalism and Communism both lead to a corrupt managerial elite oligarchic class. Capitalism is when merchants use the economy to occupy the state and Communism is when merchants use the state to occupy the economy.
