[QUOTE="zubenelgenubi, post: 4868720, member: 63706"] I wouldn't call it fear, as [USER=60631]@El Correcto[/USER] pointed out, it's a abject failure as an idealogy. Anyone who actually takes it seriously has to deny just about everything about human nature. They are not the ones generally in positions of power. Those people know what Marxism is and use it for their own gain to the detriment of everyone else. These facts are not conspiratorial or theoretical in nature. I can't explain all the intricacies of the last part in a single post. To sum up, the issues with what you say the problem is that it's a confusing mess of mixing up individuals with the society they are a part of. What burden do I bear for the transgressions of others around me? I know the explanation is that I have received unfair "privelege" because of my sex and skin color. But that says nothing about me, or my experience. If the answer is that the government has systemically suppressed certain "groups" within our society, then the idea that the government will solve the problem is somewhat absurd. I am a huge proponent of equal protection under the law, that the government exists in large part to protect those rights. The answer to government oppression is reducing the power of the government to oppress. To hold the government accountable to uphold its duty in the protection of individual liberty. Laws that unfairly effect any person, or group of people, should be addressed. But many of the legislative solutions to such problems generally make things worse, despite anyone's supposed good intentions. [/QUOTE]
