"Come now, you rich, weep and howl for your miseries that are coming upon you! Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are moth-eaten. Your gold and silver are corroded, and their corrosion will be a witness against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have heaped up treasure in the last days. Indeed the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, cry out; and the cries of the reapers have reached the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth. You have lived on the earth in pleasure and luxury; you have fattened your hearts as in a day of slaughter. You have condemned, you have murdered the just; he does not resist you." - James, the brother of Jesus Christ
Thousands of Desi workers are here, getting doubly exploited by "Indo-Canadian" "recruiters" (READ: scammers), and capitalists from everywhere. The scammers tell their "marks" (victims) that everyone in Canada drives a Mercedes and lives in a fancy condo or single-detached home; once they arrive, the myriad capitalists and petit-bourgeois labour-buyers then stick the knife in with minimum wage, irregular hours, and the ever-present threat of revoking the "LMIA" and sending them back to India, often in tens of thousands of dollars in debt to the scammers. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that the scammers often "arrange" housing, and that sometimes with the employer; these scumlords will subdivide a dwelling that used to house 4 people into 12 rooms, and then charge exorbitant rent (e.g. C$1500 a month). This is on purpose, so that there's no chance anyone can just come for 2 years, save up cash and go back home. Porky doesn't want partners. He wants slaves. Laal salaam, saathi, from Anishinaabe Country (a.k.a. so-called Ottawa, Canada) on Turtle Island, a few kilometres upstream of Aladdin Trudeau's imperial occupation palace.✊🟥🐢
as a christian I am sad to see what capitalism has done to my religion and the art used in this video is a very true depiction of religion in capitalist countries. also good song :)
As a Christian who literally has the funding reports of my church, you people don’t know what the hell you’re talking about, you’re ignorant, and I highly doubt the validity of your claim to be Christian. “Religion in capitalist countries” why don’t you tell me how religion held up in China, North Korea, Cambodia, and Laos? Cuba and the Soviet Union were majority Christian and there was still some amount of suppression.
This reminds me of Zionists and the genocidal Apartheid state of the Israel often abuses Judaism and uses it to it's advantage, even weaponizing anti-Semitism to whoever their opponent is
Sing this to Bezos, Koch, Slim, Buffett, Walton, Mnuchin, and all the heads operating the private equity firms. Oh, and all the sports billionaire owners who thrive on corporate welfare, too. Workers of the world, unite!
I have to say, I like "Loafers" better than "Bosses" for the final verse. As much as I relish the image of the capitalists finally having to do a little bit of work after the revolution, the ironically self-critical acknowledgement that the post-revolutionary society will have to encourage a few "loafers" is classic Joe Hill.
The critic is about the use of the salvation army to maintain thr exploitation of labour. The lyrics says about the preaching assisting the interests of the rich, not the poor as it should.
@@luigimrlgaming9484For religion, yes, it is the oldest suicide pact in human history, as it was a reactionary tool that brainwashed the minds of the people to ignore reality, and the history of humanity, including human evolution.

This cartoon is actually shows what the Catholic Church really is! The greatest institution of capitalists brutes in the world! It never was Christian at all!
Note that Jesus preached a present tense kingdom of heaven, not one in the by and by/after you die or "high above the sky": His disciples said to him, "When will the kingdom come?" "It will not come by waiting for it. It will not be a matter of saying 'Here it is' or 'There it is.' Rather, the kingdom of the Father is spread out upon the earth, and men do not see it." Also: Jesus said, "If those who lead you say to you, 'See, the kingdom is in the sky,' then the birds of the sky will precede you. If they say to you, 'It is in the sea,' then the fish will precede you. Rather, the kingdom is inside of you, and it is outside of you. - When you come to know yourselves, then you will become known, and you will realize that it is you who are the sons of the living Father. But if you will not know yourselves, you dwell in poverty and it is you who are that poverty."
Also: His disciples said to him, "When will the repose of the dead come about, and when will the new world come?" He said to them, "What you look forward to has already come, but you do not recognize it."
But then you say this to a priest and they will balk at you. "No, don't perpetrate violence against people (our capitalist ruling class)! Some of them (all of them) are bad, sure, but you can't just use violent revolution to solve it! (you can.)" The churches are instruments of control. People who worship God on one day and then go to enslave their fellow man on the next are no more than agents of evil.
In hindsight, it is too arrogant to dismiss the value of religion and internal spirituality; Marxists invented psychoanalysis when they discovered that they still need some sort of religion. However, the criticism at the usage of God to justify oppression and alienation of man is apt, although nowadays people will just use Race instead of God to do so
Psychoanalysis was invented by Freud, not by Marxists. Freud famously tried to keep his psychoanalitic organization politically unaligned. However, I agree with your broader point. The void left in people after the death of God is prone to be abused, for example, by elevating mere men to godhood, like happened with Stalin.
This is not attacking religion, it is attacking the use of religion as a means by which the rich control the poor. There are religious communists and progressives too. Irish Catholics are one big example but if you want specific leaders there were also Z.A. Bhutto from Pakistan, Ghadaffi in Libya and Mossadegh in Iran, among several others I can't remember.
The only lord you have is the boss. You have rejected God out of your hand and feverishly embraced your rulers while chanting in your head the inane mantra "Jesus is LORD! Jesus is LORD!" You are a slave.
Psalms 14:1 “Only fools say in their hearts, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, and their actions are evil; not one of them does good!” My God is not for sale, neither is He your enemy. Repent, and you shall be saved, and for your earthly struggle, you can overcome for God will move entire mountains if necessary for those true and faithful only to Him. We are all wretched sinners but give your heart to the Lord, and He will give you a new one, more pure and lively than the one you had before. He will change you in ways you cannot imagine, and He will forgive you of all your transgressions against Him, offering you entrance into His kingdom on the condition of the mutual love between His subjects. In the end, the choice is up to you whether you want to live with God or against Him, but in the end, everyone will do the same thing. | V Philippians 2:9-11 “Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.”

26 Those who consider themselves religious and yet do not keep a tight rein on their tongues deceive themselves, and their religion is worthless. 27 Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world. James 1:26 - 27 14 What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? 15 Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. 16 If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? 17 In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.

@@tetra. the rich still die you know, they are indeed burdened by the horror and misery of life: precisely as such do they fall to violent greed, no? but the proper marxist criticism does away with greed and such comparisons at all: the bourgeoisie function as they do due to simple economic self interest. their sins are due to their self-de-humanisation, viewing themselves as cogs in the machine they perpetuate.

The american identity is one founded on 13 slave colonies and 50 genocides. "Socialism with american characteristics" is imperialism and revisionism.
