I agree, the Soviet Union epitomized capitalism.
I mean, USSR? What's more capitalist than that? Four capitals, all in a row!

Nice OP.
Fact of the matter is that the Republicans of the 1850s-1870s were also racist, religious (actually, comparatively a lot more zealous than southernors), war-hungry jingoists. The only thing that has changed is that modern Republicans are generally implicitly, not explicitly, racist.

Abraham was the first Republican president,and his republicans would be disappointed with modern republicans.
They have went from the party that ended slavery to the party that supports segregation.
They have went from the party of liberty to the new far-right wing party of the US.

"Why is self-control, autonomy, such a threat to authority? Because the person who controls himself, who is his own master, has no need for an authority to be his master. This, then, renders authority unemployed. What is he to do if he cannot control others? To be sure, he could mind his own business. But that is a fatuous answer, for those who are satisfied to mind their own business do not aspire to become authorities." ~ Thomas SzaszThe Empire of Pretantia wrote:[...] TLDR; welcome to the internet.
