Get rid of commies.

[The Mormon]

I see one big trouble around right now. Communism. I think we should get rid of all forms. Thats my Christmas list.

[groovicus]

Why? Why is it any different than it was 50 years ago? How many different forms of communism are there?

***Note to others that may respond, please let The Mormon reply...I'm curious to see if he actually knows what he is talking about, or is just talking smack....and I haven't had a good debate for awhile..

Why dont we get rid of all the close minded people in the world? Or better yet, why dont we get rid of all the people who are not christian, white, republican and rich.

People need people to do things for them. That is why there is a government. In a democratic society, most people don't even know who to vote for, and most people vote for leaders simply because of their colleagues, or friends. And yet still, most others do not even care. Communism is awesome in theory, give everybody equal rights, treat everybody fairly. What's wrong with that?

[Striek]

Nothing is wrong with the ideal. It's the reality that doesn't work. When communism whas designed, it failed to consider the simple fact that humans are greedy. We have been since the dawn of evolution, because if we weren't we would've all starved to death.

Consider some communist countries like Cuba, North Korea and China. Why are we so much better off than them? Because we're a democracy. But what I like most is that I won't get executed if I say my government sucks ass.

Well that's better than not voting at all because of a lack of elections.

If have a saying when I hear stupid theories: "Communism works in theory too."

Get rid of commies.

Well I agree with that, but not the actual human beings. I wouldn't mind if communism itself disappeared though. I mean, are there even any instances of communism that have worked well, ever, and I don't mean just economically?

Or better yet, why dont we get rid of all the people who are not christian, white, republican and rich.

Hey, not all republicans are rich... in fact the overwhelming majority aren't! :P

That is one of the most unamerican comments I have ever seen

[Ennis]

Why yes should destroy all communists because it's on some Mormon's guest list.

In fact since we are abolishing ideas, why not get rid of feminism and any form of political activity that dosent coincide with your small minded own world view.

As a socialist who wouldnt be a full supporter of communism and definately not a supporter of capitalism I take offense to idiots like you with your idiotic post, I could close it I have the power to do it but unlike you I dont wont to get rid of your views, your ability to express that view etc.

As somebody smarter than me once said, I may disagree with what you say but I would defend to the death your right to say it.

Tsk.
