| But by getting rid of capitalism and replacing it with communism, he would be alleviating suffering.
And while buddhism respects the 'beliefs' of others, as in their spirituality, it doesn't argue that you should sit by and watch people starve just because you respect the beliefs of capitalists. You should argue with the capitalism for compassion in what they do, effectively converting them to socialism/communism, if you were succesful in making them compassionate that is. Which is exactley what Sec8 has been trying to do, persuade people on this board, and outside I assume, to socialism/communism/anarchism.
Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
