Hmmm, I was just thinking to myself (“Ikonoklast”…”Yes self”) as I looked at this pyramid based on North America’s domestic colonial operation, about “Western Socialist” theory as advocated by Marx and Engels. While I am all about the means of production being held in common, as it was done by what Marx and Engels called “primitive communists” (How ironic these are the people that are on the bottom of the pyramid!); you have to ask yourself even if it was equitable distribution of wealth to the “workers” from those two top tiers of the pyramid, wouldn’t it still be based on the slavery and exploitation of The 4th World and African populations? It seems to me that true equality can only be obtained through the liberation of two bottom realms of the pyramid which is the foundation that the pyramid rests upon; it appears by starting in the middle with the “workers” as a focal point of liberation is shorted sighted and ultimately only creates more tyrants, as opposed to abolish tyrants altogether. Just a thought.
