Socialism is not a communist formation

“Socialism is sacred, of everything that I had in my life,” a friend told me, in the era of perestroika, when the first blows on the socialist structure began to be implemented. It was a blow to the national gardens and vineyards. Elite fruit and grape varieties cultivated for many years. How much material labor of collective farmers was lost and burned out in the heat of perestroika. Nobody bothered to count, the Alma-Ata aport remained in the memories …

The propaganda machine of the West, in one word - "socialization", perverted the concept of socialism "socialization of the means of production" with the socialization of personal property. The concept is mixed … At the same time, for some reason, socialism also became a communist doctrine, thousands of falsified documents splashed out of oblivion …

Horses mixed in a bunch, people, And volleys of a thousand guns

Merged into a drawn-out howl …

(M. Lermontov)

And this is not surprising, for in the struggle against the expression of the will of the people, all means are good. So what is socialism?

Socialism encompasses the entire life of a person: the state, society, the family, science and art, religion and morality, foreign and domestic politics, it embraces all-human communication and gives an answer to everything, its own special answer - it contributes to the development of the human mind.

This doctrine, according to its design, is directly brilliant and according to its ultimate goals, it completely coincides with the natural desire of man to live on earth as freely as a bird feels in the air. No human teaching in the world has claimed such a progressive role as socialism.

After the Christian churches “became state-owned” and “became bourgeois”, taking the interests of the “ruling” classes under their protection, the masses of the peoples naturally cooled to official Christianity. When then, the factory industry, which had developed to an unprecedented size, formed a large class of the working proletariat, eroding the soul and body of the working people, when in the rough grip of capitalist production the naive faith of the commoner in the supersensible world was lost, then the church banner ceased to be a banner for the proletariat Christianity of freedom and equality.

At this time, socialism came out and inscribed the motto "Freedom, equality, brotherhood" on its banner. And the masses of the working proletariat followed the new banner, for the materialized workers now understood the earthly paradise created by socialism more than the heavenly kingdom of Christianity. As Ivan the Terrible once said to the monks: “Take the kingdom of heaven for yourself, and give me the monastic lands” - so now the proletarians have turned away from the kingdom of heaven, longing for an earthly paradise.

Having proclaimed itself the only right doctrine of life, socialism with all its might attacked the existing capitalist system and, with amazing clarity, revealed to the masses of workers all the ulcers of this system, all the oppression of it, all the lies and falsity of the slavery of life it created - and thus justified and substantiated the raging with hearts proletarians hate this order. At the same time, socialism opposed its future system of free social life to the existing slave system.

The idleness of a handful of the rich and the exhausting labor of the working masses of the old order, he contradicted the work of all, but easy and pleasant, corresponding to the inclinations and abilities of each. Socialism opposed the concentration of values in the hands of a few by a fair and equal distribution of these values among all; he socialized capital. Tools of production, land, water and mineral resources, and all public property, like roads and rivers, forest and its derivatives, for everyone's equal use and enjoyment.

Socialism contradicted the lawful production of goods, expedient trade and statistical distribution of work, and the exploitation of earthly riches against the "anarchic" (disordered) production of goods, abnormal exchange of goods and blind distribution of labor forces. Science, art, technology and all useful discoveries and inventions, socialism subordinated to the benefits and enjoyment of the entire people, and not to the benefit and for the sake of the "celestials" who are on the throne of the oligarchic "Olympus".

For whom the mass of the people, turned into gladiators, jesters and working "cattle". There is no notorious middle class in life, these are the same hired workers who fulfill their will and play the role of a decoy duck. Take, for example, modern "nouveau riche", these are "whipping boys", they will be thrown at any time to be "devoured" by the crowd, if they do not defend their stolen capital.

Socialism opposed international enmity and the formidable militarism that was exhausting the peoples, the mutual brotherhood of peoples and the exchange of goods and labor useful for all. It was necessary to possess an exceptional imagination in order to rebuild all human life on completely new foundations, and the apologists of socialism amaze with the richness of their imagination.

That is why their teachings are revealed so completely, and the socialist world they depict is not only tempting, but also easily realizable. And the more conscious people, the more they are oppressed by the cruel reality, living in this ephemeral world of invented "happiness", surrounded by purchased sports, venal love and cruelty implanted in the subconscious, the more willingly they want to believe that what the apostles of socialism preached will certainly come true. They, the proletarians, need it like air, like light, like water. And they believe that such a time will come, and the more unfortunate the proletarian, the more fanatical his belief in socialism and the imminent offensive of his kingdom.

This new faith captures more and more circles of people and in the future, the followers of socialism will undoubtedly increase more and more, appealing to society, the state and the church for the urgent introduction of reforms on a broad democratic basis and with a return to the spirit of true Christianity. Socialism in the absolute purity of its cult, in its lofty, ideological border - is that pure popular ideology, the purpose of which is the development of the human mind.
