Is being in a first world service the nearest to being a communist?
You go around the world protecting the financial interest of the state and spreading a narrative and doctrine. You produce nothing and are paid for by the people, you are given a pension by the people for supporting and enforcing the state/corporations goals and protecting the interests of the state. You are state funded by the tax dollar/GBP/franc whatever. You protect corporations oil fields and mining rights.
All wars since 1945 have not really been about protecting people, they have been about protecting the state and corporations, the status quo for the rich.
A lot of services ARE socialist programs. Roads, mail, social sercurity/disability... basically anything that's funded out of taxpayer dollars. People don't really mind socialism in regards to things that virtually everyone agree on/uses. That's why socialism works on the small scale among a mostly homogenous population, it only falls apart among a good sized culturally diverse population because then you're demanding that people pay for things that they don't care about or are even outright against(which is basically strong armed robbery).

So socialism isn't really a bad thing, is that what you are saying free education, disability, and social security?
Why are so many soldiers against left wing ideas when they essentially are paid for through a socialist system and are nearer to communism than the examples you mentioned I wonder?
Of course they do, well they have to protect the interests of big business by force but beyond that they produce nothing. No war US or UK soldiers have been in since 45 is about protecting their people. i.e. Iraq, no weapons of mass destruction were found.
So you are privy to special knowledge no one in the world has, Korea was about ideology and interfering in a civil war for another nation, same in Vietnam, both Iraq wars were about oil... Come on Fly, shock me! Say something Intelligent!
As usual when a thought crosses your mind it takes a long time, yes they had scuds and used them on Kuwait, half the third world countries in the world have scuds... They are not what we were led to believe the Iraqi's were hiding my simple friend.
Yeah, in the first gulf war, which had nothing to do with looking for weapons of mass destruction. The first gulf war the US intervened because Iraq was probably going to conquer the region and control the Oil. You don't see them intervening in Africa... No oil! So yeah, same old same old protecting corporate intersts.
Haha, you're so cute when you try to be rational and make a point and fail at it. Poor drug addled tiny fly. Go and collect your pension then cry wank over BBC.
