Oblomov, Raymond is full of it. I agree with you.
If looking for a soul [whatever the heck that is meant to be and how we are supposed to measure it if we find one], we are more likely to find it in a capitalist world than a communist one, or socialist one or other authoritarian outfit where humans are sacrificed for the greater good.
Human sacrifice has a long and ugly history. Forcing people into servitude for the state is human sacrifice.
Capitalists care a lot more for people than socialists do. Socialists are fakes and only care with other people's money. They don't invent, work, produce and donate it to somebody else as $ill Gates is doing.
Actually, I doubt that socialists create much of anything other than mass murder, human sacrifice for the greater good and poverty.
The socialist/communist reign was ugly. The rhetoric was peace, light and harmony but the reality was the re-education camp and death on a large scale.
That National Socialist idea sounds good, but the result was not. Patriotism, nationalism, socialism; all laudable sounding. But the Nazis were directly responsible for multimillions of murder and war death - maybe they got a world record for violent death in any 5 year period in history.
No Raymond, we should not go looking for a soul in the National Socialist camps for the masses.
We'd be more likely to find a soul in $ill Gates and Warren Buffett, world champion capitalists, than we would in Raymond's loving, caring and sharing socialist realms.
