Thomas Jefferson Quote

Marx’s base understanding was that “religion” was/is the opiate of the people so, he structured his form of socialism to be defined as that which defines religion (a system by values, morals, ethics, etc.) “My object in life is to dethrone God and destroy capitalism.” (Karl Marx) Applied socialism through the lens of a “should be” (morals, ethics, etc.) is a theocracy that can not allow any competing religions. The differing adaptations and administrations of socialism all declare the quote's sentiment.

"Socialism is precisely the religion that must overwhelm Christianity.⋯ In the new order, Socialism will triumph by first capturing the culture via infiltration of schools, universities, churches and the media by transforming the consciousness of society.” (Antonio Gramsci, (1891-1937) Italian Marxist theoretician and politician, creator of the Communist Party in Italy; “class warrior” Source: 1915) {Theocratic socialism from a communist perspective.}

Joseph Goebbels, Hitler’s propaganda minister further clarified the religious state and concept by stating: “⋯ Socialism is a religion. All we lack is a religious genius capable of uprooting outmoded religious practices and putting new ones in their place. We lack traditions and ritual. One day soon National Socialism will be the religion of all Germans. My Party is my church, and I believe I serve the Lord best if I do his will, and liberate my oppressed people from the fetters of slavery. That is my gospel.” (Joseph Goebbels Diary entry for October 16, 1928)

The occupying statist theocracy now infesting this land is an escalating fulfillment of the here quote’s prophetic accuracy.
