I like the way people equate communism with evil.

Obviously not studied it much.

Communism, the ideology is perfect, that is its inherent flaw. It's a utopian dream that can't exist due to human nature.

Communism isn't in itself bad, it was perverted in its course, much as Islam is being perverted by madmen.

But then of late there have been a bunch of generalisations being thrown around here without much thought.

I think you didn't listen to your father the first time... He had to hammer it in!

By the way, the voting is very tight: 3-3 and the outcome still unpredictable!

Yes Fear indeed :|\
Wait a minute! You mean there was no threat to SE Asia from Communism?

And after the US retreated and Communists took over, things were coming up roses for the Vietnamese people?

Oops. Minor details.

You're right.

But I'd have to type "Russian/Chinese/Vietnamese/North Korean/Cambodian/Cuban communism" every time I reference the subject.

Now, having to type that every time would be evil!

The latest news - voting is 4-4! What an intrigue! By the way, when the Supreme Soviet wishes to announce the winner? :rotfl:

Default A communist vote

It would have been far more interesting if one of Kapitain's nutz was actually nuts.

It's too funny - I voted, and now it's 5 vs 5. Why do you pick option 1 vs option 2? :rotfl:

What about the United Federation of Planets? It’s basically a communist state and it seems to work out OK. Everyone has free food, has free clothing (just don’t where a red shirt), there is no disease (except the one the crew of the Enterprise encounters every week), there are a bunch of cool starships from Star Fleet to protect you. Over a 150 member worlds can't be wrong!
