Socialism's contradiction with human nature

Gustave Le Bon revealed that history runs on dreams, not logic—90% of humans merely rationalize their emotions. Every civilization projects fantasy ideals (Christian Heaven, Marxist Utopia, Valhalla) that animate their entire existence. Modernity's enormous wealth enabled unprecedented delusion, creating TWO competing fantasies so powerful that people will destroy nations refusing to fulfill them. Most remain trapped in modernity's mythology, unable to see the illusions controlling their lives.
