      Obviously not because that leads to complacency and delusions that don't help anyone. "Communism is inevitable" is just end of days evangelical crap for leftists.

      It kind of has to. An economic system has to work on a sort of faith in the whole scheme. That can be faith in collaboration or faith in capital or faith in the crown and so on. Faith being a believe in something you have no control of and no real ability to predict.

        "Medicine is like faith cuz people have to believe in the doctors' advices and shit"

        It's about trusting in science and not be fooled by scammers (capitalist and petit burgeois)

          Social politics is a science, but the inherent mechanisms of a society are often led by the Tinkerbell Effect, in which belief, senseless or not, leads to progression in certain aspects.
