Cyber-Communism: The New Threat in the New Millennium :: social issues

Cyber- fabianism The New Threat in the New MillenniumMy picnic into cyber- socialism began when I read Brock Meeks Hackers Stumble Toward Legitimacy1. The article addressed a recent hackers convention. Interestingly, the keynote tattleer was Eric Boucher2 (alias Jello Biafra3), a rock head with no technical background. Numerous questions ensue. Who is Eric Boucher (alias Jello Biafra)? What does he believe? much importantly, why schedule someone with no technical background to speak at a hackers convention? Addressing his beliefs, his proposed Green Party platform4 is not inharmonious with the Manifesto of Libertarian socialism5. This answer produces a more troubling question. Was his dialect against corporate America mere socialist babbling or was his words part of something more sinister, a subversive cyber-communist movement? I am not the first to see possible communist subversion of the digerati6. Corey Winesetts argon Linux Users Really Communists?7 questions the nature o f the relationship, if any, between open source and communism. Scott Billings Heresy and Communism8 ponders that the Linux communitys knee-jerk reaction to negative opinions about Linux could be the result of being infra the communists spell. Before I can evaluate cyber-communisms merits, I must sic communisms true nature and communisms real threat to America. Communism Revisited Theoretical communism and practical communism have long been held as different governmental sociologies. Despite Marxs call for the working class to revolt, the communist revolutions leaders always ascend from the intelligentsia. John Stormers None Dare Call It Treason supports this position saying Fidel Castro was a product, not of the cane fields of Cuba, but of the halls of capital of Cuba University. Joseph Stalin was not a simple peasant rebelling at the oppression of the Czar. He became a communist while studying for the priesthood in a Russian Orthodox seminary. The membership of the first Commu nist spy ring reveal in the U.S. Government was not spawned in the sweat shops of New Yorks begin east side or the tenant farms of the South. The conspirators came to high government posts from Harvard law of nature School. Communisms fallacy is the belief in everyones benevolence yet, human nature proves otherwise. Communism cannot create a perfect society with imperfect people. Hence, to direct Utopia, communism produces a totalitarian government over the less-perfect people, ruled by the perfect people - communists. Thus, communisms true nature creates a controlling government in the name of a better world. Not every supporter demand be a knowing conspirator.
