I once watched a video of a movie scene on YouTube, I don't know what the title was but it was an old movie and it was black and white, maybe a war or political themed film. In that scene there is one character who, if I'm not mistaken, is wearing a general's uniform and talking to someone else and saying something like this:

"The war against fascism is over, now it is the war against communism."

I'm still curious to this day, which movie is that scene from? It seemed interesting. It seems to be set sometime after World War II because World War II was clearly a war against fascism for many, and what the war against communism meant was the Cold War, for the United States and its allies. I don't mean to be political, I'm just curious.

Machine ethics is interesting tho but I still can't accept it. To make this happen is also dangerous for humans in the long term.
Those people, especially hardline communists and Marxists, who always talk about revolution or the necessity of carrying out a revolution, are like children. Like a child jumping on a chair and shouting "Revolution, revolution, revolution".

If their purpose in carrying out a revolution is only to overthrow capitalism and realize socialism, it would be better for them not to do that. They think revolution is the only way, so dogmatic. There is no urgency at all to carry out a revolution.

The revolution will happen if it has to happen. Social conditions determine a revolution to occur, and if a revolution occurs it must be final and truly change society. Revolution is not viable for now and day by day it becomes less and less relevant.

Socialism is an inevitability and it does not have to be realized through revolution. Socialism can be realized through many reforms and system improvements. This includes of what I call a revision of capitalism, which makes capitalism softer and better.

A collection of reforms can emerge an entirely different economic and political system, it will make capitalism softer and then capitalism will disappear. Ultimately, socialism will be realized because the realization of socialism is correlated with the evolution of capitalism.

What is the point of a revolution if the condition of society is getting better? Improving society through a welfare state and workers' rights is a must and this is part of socialism, no need for revolution. Focus on the goal, not the process.

When capitalism is declining at the same time socialism is increasing. Capitalism cannot disappear quickly and socialism cannot be realized quickly. We are already in the late stage capitalism, revolution is not necessary anymore, just increase more social welfare programs.

This is actually just a kind of clarity for those who don't like me because of my views against revolution, but also my annoyance with hardline communists and Marxists because they are the craziest ones who voice revolution.

Always remember that the realization of socialism is correlated with the evolution of capitalism. Revolution is not a necessity.
What a strange time when what we called the left was not on the left, the right was not on the right, and the centre was not on the centre. However, this is how politics should be understood and work. Politics must be all encompassing, for everyone, for the common good.

The political spectrum is important, it is useful for classifying and determining our political positions. However, it cannot be rigid. Each corner of the political spectrum is not rigid and completely separate from the others. Hence why there are many models of this.

People can be on the 'left' or on the 'right' in looking at certain things. Too many variables are needed to truly determine an individual's political position. Most people see other people's political positions only superficially, they only see what they see, just on the surface.

So, it shouldn't matter if people accuse you of being leftist or rightist. Even so, it is still potentially dangerous. I personally avoid any political labeling of myself. It is easier for me to refute accusations than to defend my political position. People change, so do I.
I'm afraid that people who don't understand Max Stirner and Ayn Rand think that their thoughts are the same. No, they are not the same. If you want to read about their thoughts, read Stirner first then Rand. It is not recommended to read Rand first.
