communism

Why don't you mention it, then?

My two cents: Death is a part of life.

 

Sure death is a part of life Tamee, but cruel and unjustified death is quite another story. Like Stalin starving millions in the eastern USSR and Pol Pot murdering people who wore glasses. Communism gave the government complete control over the people under the guise of the common good, and dictators took care of things from there (because leadership exists). One needent look far to find what true communism was actually all about; those who defend it are lost without reason.

 

A centralized government (regardless of ideology) always murders, always exploits. Genocide is genocide. Do not forget that millions upon millions of innocent people have been slaughtered under the capitalists' supposedly noble banner of "fighting Communism".

 

Well, I must admit to delinquincy as communal forums moderator on this thread - I was so not interested in the subject that I never read it and so never realized that this does not belong here -

Please take political idealogy to another forum - mainly the political forum - unfotunately only members can post there and that means a certain number of posts may be deleted when I transfer this post so I am leaving a copy of it here - but locked so that political idealogical conversations can be continued out of a forum dedicated to communal living.
And no offense intended to any
