Co-option or Co-operation

 The key word here is that the word 'socialism' was invented by the early co-operators, who used the words 'socialism' and 'co-operation' interchangeably.


It is my contention that Karl Marx and his aristocratic wife, Jenny, and their capitalist backer, Fredrich Engles, were 'parachuted' into London, just as were Lenin and Trotsky into Revolutionary Russia.


All to co-opt true socialism.


Thus the Marxists still speak of 'communism', which its not, and 'socialism', which, is also a co-option.


If we know this history (of co-option) we might be able to avoid it.


Might!


Thank-you, all, for engaging in this.


For true freedom, through equality and diversity,


John
