What is this communist bullshit?

Should we not all strive to be better and be ambitious. In the big picture, yes we should be unhappy since we haven't accomplished all this shit centuries ago. First it was the Ottomans, then the Inquisition, then the Communists, now it's fucking all of them. Can you leave people alone?

Being ambitious is about making the future brighter for your kids so they can be better than you and their kids like them and so on. This type of parasitic thinking where it's better to be happy now and stay content with everything is what makes us stagnate and eventually regresses all of our work.

Communists, liberals and environmentalists biggest faggy argument against capitalism is that the earth will wither away since we apparently only consume, but when they use that dumbass argument they forget the concept of supply and demand.

The biggest thing I got from this is SAVE THE EARTH from the evils capituhlists. But of course everyone's reaction is different.

So, can you explain to me what it should be about or what you have gathered it should be about? The largest thing beside communism I see is the argument for culling human ambition.

Is this an older story, or have you reverted to the stone age all on your own?

Pretty sure this should be addressed to Woman and not to Man.

I see where you're going with this, and I don't disagree with your premise, but I would still posit that the parable applies overall, to both genders/sexes. Allow me to elaborate by continuing the parable a bit...

It was then that the Mole spoke up. "I agree. If anyone knows holes, it's me. The hole our wise friend speaks of is called 'Actualization.' Unfortunately for our friend, Man, nothing anybody can give him will ever fill that hole. He must produce and procure what he needs to fill that hole himself, by the sweat of his own brow. His bride has a similar hole, and just like Man, she too must procure and produce what she needs to fill that hole, though her substance will be of a different material than his."

The Jaguar and the Vulture rebutted, "But we gave him strength and sight. Why would he not be happy?" to which the Mole replied, "Ah, but while you gave him the tools to make himself into more than what he is, it does not make him into that. Look at the Crippled Man yonder...he cannot run in the savannah, as you do Jaguar, but he is content to sit in his hut weaving baskets and fishtraps all day long. He is not just 'Crippled Man', he is 'Weaver'. He takes his eyes, studies the work of our friend Spider, and sets to work with that tool to create something bigger than himself.

Mole turned around to go back into his burrow, "Until Man figures out how to take the tools you have given to him, and make something of himself, much like Artist takes a blank canvas or a block of marble and makes a masterpiece, he will forever remain little more than a mundane and unhappy block of clay. It's sad, because even clay can have value...but until it is shapen, all it is is mud."

And so Mole left the other animals to ponder what he said.

I can see why this was left out. Like most parables and metaphors it loses power the longer it continues. In any case until the animals have to walk in mankind's shoes I'll thank them to keep their opinions to themselves.
