Hmmmm. And Shintoism?

Edit: I'm being cheeky. Looks like religion turns itself into tribalism when a certain population point is reached.

Authoritarianism != Communism

Communism is about the power of the working class, seizing the means of production, and self governance. No government has effectively put into practice communist practices because the concept of government itself is contrary to communism.

There's been a decades long movement in the US to demonise communism (and socialism) in favour of capitalism. There used to be overtly communist political groups in America.

Nope. Depends on the parent. I still got beat up in the 80s/90s for closing the door too loudly, hitting my brother, waking mum up from an afternoon nap etc. It stopped when I was 17 because I was big enough to hit back (though I never did).

Is this when they realise that infinite growth isn't actually infinite? There's always a place for a device for entertainment. Be that pen and paper or electronic.
