So you want THIS change?

It was Dostoyevsky in The Possessed who identified what is now known as Shigalyovism, a socialist utopia. He writes, "The thirst for education is already an aristocratic thirst. As soon as there is a family or love, there is a desire for property. We shall throttle that desire: we shall unleash drunkenness, scandal, denunciations; we shall unleash unprecedented debauchery; we shall extinguish every genius in his infancy. Everything must be reduced to the common denominator, total equality."

The abolition of private property, religion and the family is the ideal. The demand for equality, the destruction of the hierarchy into which society in the U.S. has arranged itself is the goal. This is so radical that it leads to a negation of existence of any genuine differences between individuals. Equality is turned into equivalence. Each belongs to all and all belong to each and all are slaves and equal in slavery. Our founding fathers in the U.S. promised its citizens equality at birth but not equality of results. So now we'll just sweep everything away? Because that is where we are headed.

Solzhenitsyn writes in From Under The Rubble, "socialism so overestimates the role and dominion of material property that it wants to destroy everything that cannot become the possession and private property of the masses; it wants to eliminate talent by force."
