As of this moment I am a Democratic Socialist with Communist (Titoist) tendencies. I was a flat out Commie at one time. But I re-read Marx, Lenin, Che, so on. Workingmen of all Countries Unite! Thoughts?

Re: Communism!
Nope, sorry, not interested.
Have a nice day.Every moment of a life is a horrible tragedy, a slapstick comedy, dark nihilism, golden illumination, or nothing at all; depending on how we write the story we tell ourselves.

Re: Communism!
I am not a Communist, but I do believe in solidarity with other workers.
I am born and raised in Texas, in a former Confederacy state, in the South.
Anyone with eyes to see can tell how the business class has deliberately exploited racial and class lines here to divide workers from unionizing and standing up for themselves, and to keep them voting against their own wallets. That it goes on and on is to the eternal shame of this region of the country.

Re: Communism!
Communism won't work until people are perfect. As soon as some people find out that they don't have to work to live they let other people support them. It was tried early on in the first colonies in America and after more than half the group died the first winter they established a capitalist economy. After that the colony prospered because not only could you keep or sell what you owned and worked for you could make a profit doing so. It was a little strange that those who "couldn't" work were suddenly able to when they had to feed themselves instead of living off the work of others.The Dragon sees infinity and those it touches are forced to feel the reality of it.

The USSR after Lenin some will say Stalin wasn't Socialist anymore it just became an enforcer of the Tsarist ways. Voting, giving people power is the way. Too bad the United States of Oppression doesn't have too many options when it comes to voting. Voting in the USO is like two gangs walking up to you saying "We are going to beat you and rob you but you can vote for who does it to you.Satan is my spirit animal

Re: Communism!
Or better still Duce,has he ever visited one..I did back in the Navy days. Took a tour across the border from Hong Kong into the "New Territory's" where Red China met the British possession of Hong Kong and Kowloon. It was enlightening to say the least. Workers crossed back and forth...and talked about living in the Communist side.MAGIC is MAGIC,black OR white or even blood RED

Re: Communism!
Communism is good in theory, but tends to fail in practice. Current communist countries (China, Cuba, North Korea) have terrible human rights records, oppressive suppression of freedom (in China, there is a very specific internet that you can access because nothing against China is allowed to be accessed. In North Korea, media access is restricted so the country can't access any Western channels that might speak out against the Leader). Poverty is appalling. Freedom of speech is basically non-existent. If you were in those countries, you wouldn't be allowed to expression your opinion for a change in government without it being a crime.
I'll stick with the "United States of Oppression", thank you. For all America's faults, at least I can freely say that our political parties are full of morons, and I won't be either jailed or killed for being queer.

Re: Communism!
I'm afraid that's not true. North Korean, Laos, Cuba, North Korea, China, and Vietnam are all communist countries. Socialist countries include Canada, Ireland, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, the Netherlands, Norway, and some others. China is categorized as both.

Originally posted by habbalah View PostWould you mind providing sources that explain how these countries aren't what they claim to be? I looked into North Korea and they now identify as juche rather than Communist, but as you're making this claims, it's up to you to provide the evidence supporting it.Support the PKK. Support Democratic Socialism with a drop of Lenin.

Re: Communism!
Originally posted by Kori Harpoon View PostIt's been awhile since I read The Communist Manifesto I have been struggling with his earlier writings which are not easy. I lost my books by Lenin when I moved but to put it simply you cannot go from an Imperialist nation like Tsarist Russia and then Communism. It wont work, it needs to be Socialist then it can be Communist much MUCH later. I forget what the name of this process is. I cannot think properly now except for like 3 hours here and 2 hours there I haven't slept in 3 days.
