Communism’s greatest advantage is that it appeals to emotion. It promises equality, fairness, and a world without suffering, ideals so seductive that its supporters can mistake good intentions for good outcomes.

Capitalism makes a less romantic promise: freedom, opportunity, and prosperity through voluntary exchange, individual responsibility, and the right to keep what you earn.

Communism asks to be judged by what it promises. Capitalism asks to be judged by what it produces.

And therein lies the irony: capitalism must constantly defend its imperfections, while communism is too often excused for its failures.

One is held accountable for reality. The other is defended as an ideal.

I liked Lanterns. So there 😝

#Lanterns is a perfect example why you can’t let expectations dictate the final experience. I’m a huge GL fan, went in with certain hopes, had theories as the show went on. It may not have been the show I *thought* I wanted, but it’s what I needed & all the more wonderful for it.

“If I were asked today to formulate as concisely as possible the main cause of the ruinous Revolution that swallowed up some sixty million of our people, I could not put it more accurately than to repeat: “Men have forgotten God; that’s why all this has happened.”

[Rock Chartrand @RockChartrand]

I don’t understand what’s so complicated about the idea that need does not create ownership, and ability does not create an obligation.

Humans are social creatures, but we are not ants in a colony. A human being is an individual consciousness, capable of reason, choice, purpose and responsibility for his own life.

Civilization doesn’t require erasing that individuality. We cooperate, trade and give because we value doing so. None of that means one person’s need automatically becomes another person’s debt.

The moment “I need” becomes “therefore you owe,” cooperation becomes coercion, and individuals become resources for the collective.

Human society is remarkable precisely because we can live together without belonging to one another.

Spawn (1997). Spawn plays with a little dog named Spaz more than he fights evil, or even uses his powers. When there is action, it looks fake and dumb. The clown is extremely annoying. I'm not sure who this is for, but it isn't a general audience and it isn't Spawn fans.
