People who object to one party rule. People who object to restrictions on free speech. People who object to State owned factories poisoning their neighborhoods. People who object to one man leading their nation forever. People who object to folks detained without trial and tortured. Take your pick.

It seems more that you depaint "fake communist" dictatorships or actual democracies, democracies in which we don't know when the parties defend private interests that put people under the dictatorship of money. Democracies that massively contribute to destroy, through pension funds and private interests, African, Indonesian or South American ecosystems. Let me show you an Engels' comment in the introduction of "the Civil War in France." Quote:
I recommand to you to read -"The Civil War in France" written by Marx. It would show you, that almost nothing changed since 150 years, how fake democracies manipulated by medias and private interests, as the American or European ones do not respect the wishes of their electors. Today the people can't revoke an unfair gouvernement. Our democracies are masquerades. Just two little examples: 1) Why today, after all these atrocities happening in the US schools, there is not a referendum to know if American people still agree with the Second amendment? 2) Why several American states do not allow initiatives and referendums?

See, you'll get no sympathy from me for your "theory" when I can look at what actually happened. Its like saying "I'm a genius at repairing transmissions-- oh, but none of the cars I repair work". |

You never mention that the ruling class never wanted to share the power and the wealth. The ruling class always commited crimes and persecuted first and push the working class to defend itself. But no words from you. Total silence. How would communism have evolved if the elites would not have fought against it, but contributed to it? Read "The Civil War in France". Did you at least read Anarchist and Marxist books? Or are you afraid to be filed by the CIA if you download them or buy their books through your credit card?

You do know modern day Marxists and Communists live in a world of make believe
If there is one thing I learned as a "worker" and one who lived through seeing a decline of his hometown when the Auto Plant, Oil Refinery and Aluminium Smelter all close within 2 years of each other is this... The "Big" companies are greedy The "Worker" wants more and more There is a lot of truth in the man in my Avatar's song Badlands, this line ... "Poor man wanna be rich, rich man wanna be King, King ain't satisfied till he rules everything" But here's what I learned , never ever bite the hand that feeds you One day that hand will slap back

My argument is an empirical argument. That is, every time folks attempt to implement "Marxism" it turns into a slaughter. All I'm doing is noticing. Quote:

But that doesn't make him any kind of prophet. He never ran anything, and never had anything but vague aspirations for what communism might actually look like. The people who took those vague aspirations and started "communist" parties-- well, they gave us slaughter and starvation. All I do is notice . . |

I first read Bouddhism books and was surprised to know that the Dalai Lama thought that Karl Marx was a great author. Then I came through Marxism after creating this topic, debating with you, Brecht, Brian and other members. I've listened to a French communist telling: "Be careful, the capitalist fans will always speak about Stalin and Mao, but never will comment about their own crimes." As antispecist, I really think that Capitalism is more dangerous, far more dangerous than anarcho-communism. |
