The Words of His Holiness St. Bhagavan Shree Matt Christman (SWT) will be interpreted:
Mainstream western politics are the expressions of and the coping mechanisms for neuroses caused by the ravaging of the human psyche that existing as a capitalist subject induces. The ruling class exploits this fully with the charade of two party electoral politics. The death of god refers to the end of a collective shared dream and striving by humanity towards creating heaven on earth (leftist mass movement), because...
Matt talked on length once about how Communism carries elements of ancient Christian Teleological aspirations of creating heaven on Earth and possibly spawning "God" through the realization of a truly collectivist existence, seeing "God" in striving towards the common good of all. Unfortunately...
I forgot where matt mentions this, its a bit eurocentric too, but there was a revolution called the "November revolution" that occurred before WW1 in Germany. This revolution was a pivotal moment in history, because the historical conditions at that point (according to Matt) meant that the toppling of the German capitalist machine would cause a chain reaction where the entirety of europe would experience an "Arab Spring" moment, possibly leading to a divergence in history where the west may have become socialist.
Unfortunately, they were beaten by the bourgeoisie, and all revolutionary energy was devoted to WW1, all momentum was lost as millions literally died, therefore...
According to matt, the 20th century was a truly critical time in western history where the forces of heaven (20th century socialism/communism) fought against the forces of the Demiurge (the capitalist powers).
After a long and bloody series of conflicts, in 1991, the USSR fell. Armageddon, for western socialism, one year later, Fukuyama declares history to have ended, a victory for satan.
A truly incomprehensible amount of death and suffering thus followed...
Capitalism kills hundreds of millions of people per year, makes billions suffer lives of toil, and ravages the planet to the point of total ecological catastrophe, all in the name of "economic growth" because, as per Mammon, "Greed is Good", as such, if you put your ear to the ground...
The driving force of capital will doom everyone it feeds on worldwide unless we act to oppose it.
How much longer until a Final Fantasy game winds up accidentally (or on purpose) cribbing this meme as the foundation for its story plot and resolution?
They will be forgiven for their sins as long as they have Cloud put on a dress and makeup again.
