the fundamental theorem of communism is not that capitalism and socialism are in conflict, and that socialism must destroy capitalism. rather, the fundamental theorem of communism is that capitalism will inevitably evolve into communism - and there is nothing capitalists can do to stop it.

once again: i am not a historical materialist. i don't believe in historical inevitability, and one must believe in it as it is an article of faith. but, i do believe that marx had deep insight in understanding that capitalism will eventually require fewer and fewer workers, and therefore be unable to sustain itself.

all your talk about "entrepreneurialism" is just an upper class bubble. it's a fictional reality, based on economic bubbles and only-exists-on-paper delusions and fantasies.

reality is that the real economy continues to contract, that capitalism remains in decline, that it's still on a collision course with collapse and that it will wipe out your make believe bourgeois world when the crash finally comes.

and good riddance.
