Re: Collectivism, is the opposite of individual freedom. A collective cannot tolerate a free individual.
The problem with collectivism, is the same as with communism.
It doesn't actually eliminate poverty, or mean that there isn't a ruling class, it just means that there is no middle class, that all the lower class are equally poor, and the ruling class become dictators that have total control over everyone.

So it is a consolidation of wealth into the hands of fewer and fewer, and the people get poorer and poorer.

Collectivism may work when it comes in a voluntary way, such as churches, religion, or the idea of what Unions use to be before they were hijacked and and turned into a mafia type situation. All those things you can leave behind, or can stop participating in.

The collectivism is nothing more than forced legalized theft at the point of a gun with threat of rape rooms, and laws that only apply to the peons, and underclass.

Statism is slavery. It is the force of the state that enforced the ability for the bankers and money creation to take over.
The "LAWS" of the collective government have given away our nation to bankers.
Bailouts and more power to the fed were given under Bush,
Bailouts and more power to the fed were continued under Obama.

I am awake.




The money created by a private family is not capitalism.
Lobbyists are not capitalism
The merger of state and corporate powers is not capitalism, or a free market
You have never witnessed a free market, or capitalism in your entire lifetime.

I am not going to watch this video.
What you are saying is incredibly ignorant. Collectivism is not like that. Whoever told you this is traitorous to the American way.
Collectivism is in no way the opposite of individual freedom when the collective is on the the same train of thought or ideals that pertain to freedom...
It seems to me that your definition of a free individual is someone who is entirely privilaged in life.
Go away.

Re: Collectivism, is the opposite of individual freedom. A collective cannot tolerate a free individual.
it is part of the human condition that certain types want power OVER.....
that certain types want to control in order to perpetuate their own version of how the world should work.
It is not conducive to healthy growth and interaction.
The best form of government is one that allows choice and inhibits those who would enslave.
There is a difference between a co operative and a collective.
The former implies choice

I'm not sure who you are defending here.

If a man is free

Truly free, owes no man anything

Then if that man wants to agree to be part of something for mutual benefit then that is one thing, and I wouldn't necessarily call it the collective. It would be more of a group, or a gathering of like minded individuals.


A collective at the point of a gun, that requires you to send your children to go fight in bankers wars, that gives the power of money to a few elite unnamed bankers who control the wealth of a nation. A collective that has rigged elections with puppet actors as leaders, A collective that keeps you sick, broke, energy dependent, and has no way of leaving or opting out, without trading one prison for another is the collective I'm talking about.
tolerant, color blind, programmed, plugged in, and for the most part stupid. "we are all the same".

Liberalism
Fascism
Communism
socialism
are all collectives that are tyrannical and forced upon the once free individual.

Yep, reject the hive mind, reject society, reject the system, a collective is an unguided disconnected force/ entity that seeks to imprison/ enslave the individuals that create it, the true collective can only be assumed through everyone acting individually in accordance to their free will, this is the creators plan, everyman is sovereign, everyman holy.

Collectivism means loss of individual freedom, disconnected entities, becoming hollow machines for some grim transhumanistic future, which would kill the living organism/portal we call Earth/ Sofia/ Gaia....this is not the will of the creator which is wild and free as we are intended to be

So what do you do whenever the collective becomes hijacked by a few bent on destroying it from within?

How do you change a collective that is collapsing in on itself with collective promises it can no longer keep?

What if the collective no longer becomes voluntary, no longer has the consent of those collected, and no longer cares about freedom?

If a police state is built, the only thing lacking is a dictator to run it. Do you like a collective dictatorship? Is being part of the collective then still a good thing?

To be free is simply to know you always have a choice as an individual. No one can take that freedom from you. They can try to delude you from thinking you have no choice. But that is all they can do besides lead you over a cliff.

Even if you are locked up somewhere, you still have choices on how to act and what to say, or not to say while confined. Besides, what is the difference between knowing your behind bars and being freely captive?
