"Communism's Soul" ... the Video
Well, I might as well post this on Steemit, too.
Dang it, I really think an animated video of "Communism's Soul"--based on my article from a million years ago--is important to have right now, to make the insanity, immorality, and destructiveness of communism/socialism understandable to all the poor dupes out there cheering for Bernie and the other commie salesmen in power and in the media.
(The article--this version posted over a decade ago--can be found at this link, and feel free to scroll down to where it says "Communism's Soul": http://www.larkenrose.com/blog/1795.html )
But animation takes a lot of time and effort. And hiring professional animators is expensive as hell, so that ain't happening. So I'm going to do something possibly stupid--though you have the power to control just how stupid it is. I'm going to commit to making that video, and doing all the animation myself--and then publicly posting it for free--while asking for donations and just hoping that it doesn't end up being yet another loss for me. Feel free to share this.
If every Steemit follower I have donated a dollar (which I know isn't going to happen), I'd be thrilled about getting paid that much.
To donate by PayPal, use “[email protected]”
(Yes, I hate PayPal, and I have to send it to someone else’s account now after they tried to rob me, but it’s still a handy way for a lot of people to donate.)
To donate by GooglePay, send to “[email protected]”. (If you have a debit card, this is pretty dang easy to set up.)
By BTC, use: 3AsmKD7M7DvCxxHPySQ6G9oASR7xJuhmp8

(Also, if you're on Steemit, just upvoting this article helps!)
I suppose when I do these things, I should give periodic updates on funds received, so people have some idea whether they want to chip in or not. Some might assume I'm getting tons, some might assume I'm getting nothing. As of about seven hours since posting this, I've gotten $110 in total (not including the Steemit payout for this posting, which doesn't happen for another week).
I'd be willing to animate it for you for free.
Yes, you should always post things on Steemit, too - even the other little miscellaneous comments you post on FB. They'll rack up Steem $$ here too, so why not? :-)
Yes, and there are also people out here (like me) which get rid of FB, Google, Apple, Paypal etc. And finally I came here to steemit because of you @larkenrose.
You have my dollar upvote at least. And the feds can't get your crypto!

I hate to be a noob, but how do we send projects like this a dollar or two from the steemit wallet?
Just go into your wallet and click on the arrow next to the amount. Click transfer and a thing should pop up and you type it who you want to transfer steem to.
Thanks my friend ;)
No problem. Did you just send me some SBD? Thanks! Just now saw that.
Your welcome, I don't have a lot, but did send a little for your explanation.
Sorry, I'm at the moment a little bit more than broke. But if I understood well comments help also to get more attention and finally payout.?
If you need some day some help with informatics I'm glad to help you out with it. Hope I will get it managed to recover till next year and to see you in Anarchapulco. Would love also to attend "Candles in the dark" there.
Hi @larkenrose, I'm not yet sure if I agree with you all the way, but I am curious about your animation. It'll be easier to consume than your million year old blog post. (Your words, not mine. ;))
I'll sponsor two seconds with two millibit (0.002 BTC).
If you want to return the love, please resteem my first and only article. Or don't. :)
In a statistical communist human there can be only soul , feelings and so on - but there is no reason and mind.
