Libertarianism
In this ironically indicting post, Sandeep, a hegemonistic right wingist, compares selfish libertarianism and compassionate socialism.
Libertarianism, for the compassionate innocents amongst my readers, advocates ruthless self-interest as a sole moral virtue, instead of an innocent altruism that gets according to need and contributes according to ability. It relies on machinistic rigid reason instead of a righteously vague human emotion and feeling. It emphasizes vulgar money, most probably obtained by unsustainable practices, instead of a collectively joyous egalitarian poverty. Do read that post for more gruesome descriptions that would make even the robust-hearted amongst us feel faint at the hegemonistic threat posed by this ideology.
Hopefully the exposition of the moral hollowness of libertarianism in that post would lead more of the capitalist minions into the inviting arms of us compassionate socialists.
