It is against the law to promote communism or fascism. But anyway what this tells you is the party will strip you from all your rights and property, the party should decide wheter you can live, work or go to church. The party then regulates market and does not let private interest as well as it bans competition. Only ones connected to the party can participate in economy. In fact the party becomes a new burgeoisie! We've been there for 50 years, it doesn't do any good! Greetings from Poland!

[continued] Just like the Republican Party claims to be in favour of freedom, while the only freedom they really want is their totalitarian freedom to tell everyone else what they can and cannot do.

It hasn't even been ATTEMPTED to be put into use. Proof? The most visible sign for the existence of Communism is that within the system, there is no money. Ever seen that anywhere? Then, there is no political party. People are elected because they are known to be good men and anyone can call for re-election whenever it seems necessary. Seen that one? People who do things in the name of Communism often don't do it for Communism.

"Blah blah blah ...
"Blah blah blah communism isn't totalitarian or tyrannical. Blah blah blah go fuck yourself for disagreeing with me." Is that all you guys can come up with? You have no idea how many freaking times people have told me that communism really works and that it was just implemented wrong. You tolerant lefties then insult me WHEN I point out that it's been tried freaking hundreds of times and never succeeded once. That isn't just coincidence...

It hasn't even been in effect. Except if you're one of the brainless cliché Americans that don't know any difference between Communism, Socialism, Stalinism, Bolshevism, Leninism, Marxism and Social Democracy. However, as your post suggests, you're also a slave to the degenerated political discourse of the Republican Party, therefore: Go fuck yourself.

Most people do not ...
Most people do not get that the communist manifesto was asking, simply, for more state intervention where market failed to improve human life: work time limit, healthcare, pension funds. At that time - nineteenth century -, most capitalist thought they had a right to make worker life miserable. And that´s not true, nor then, nor today. Public intervention will always be needed wherever there´s explotation. It is not a problem of 'market yes, market no', it is a problem of social justice.

Does anyone else find it ironic that there is an ad before the video?

Plain and simple little idiots communism is a failed ideology it can't and will not work.

...i didn't call my brother an idiot. calling a whole domain of people (ie europe) the conception of satan is a just enough reason for me to call you an idiot. if it wasn't for the pope in the middle ages, you wouldn't even be christian. and let's re-do your list: selfish: "i'm better than you" ie "blame yourself because you know not Jesus cause you have not sought him." wicked: "all of them will burn in hell." greedy: "i'm going to heaven la la just because i'm this"

i'm not refuting that.

then why call your brother an idiot if you speak in his name, it is better to correct him than curse him. But let me tell you, they are falling and choosing many hosts to manifest their kind. People are becoming selfish, wicked & greedy, evil thoughts all which signify satans dominion on earth. The fire will soon come .....

But still I think ...
But still I think even if communism did work, (I have my doubts), people will always find a way of being 'better' than others, and that idea may take off. I don't think we should keep wanting equality. I mean I am all for everyone having an opportunity but I think It's good that we have people who are rich and those who aren't as cruel as it may seem, I think it actually allows us to develope and civilisation to go on without there having to be strong policing.

NOO! Don't be ...
NOO! Don't be offended I was taking the piss out of sterotypes!! But I really don't believe you could covert a society, and I think revolting would be the worst way as to make a revolution successful, you need a figure head and a strong policing force and that isn't what true communism is about, true communism is about us all having an equal chance at life. Plus I also think people might be less willing to work just to be the same.

fair points i see communist society as a way for people to work for a greater. million of voices working together with no financial woes, no greed. the perfect unity of the human race is what i see. i would also like to point out that im a student and i dont do drugs and im not lazy. i just see the world in another way :P

I'm an student, didn't try alcohol or smoke in my life. I'm a Communist.

THAT'S WHAT I'M ...
THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING! YOU'RE AN IDIOT! YOU DON'T BLAME JESUS FOR THE KILLING OF INNOCENT CHILDREN BY SOME MAD MAN WHO KILLED THEM IN HIS NAME! and yes you're right, satan lives in our minds and we shouldn't follow what we think, only what we feel...in our spleen-fed hearts.
baretta1983 on 2012-02-26
if he did kill ...
if he did kill children, it must of been for some satanic cause. this is satans planet not Jesus's, don't blame him blame yourself because you know not Jesus cause you have not sought him. Jesus said "the kingdom of heaven is inside your heart" not your your mind where evil lives. all reality is evil, you cannot possibly say that there was any good since the conception of europe. all will burn

but still, it's ...
but still, it's not just medical break throughs, (which I actually believe are more likely under a capitalist system), everything. As if I'm honest with you, no way would I bother working hard on developing something if I couldn't be superior to others and have a big house etc. If I couldn't have that I wouldn't bother developing things I would just be a rebel or ordinary person.

You make a really ...
You make a really good point on these foundations, and I think overtime communism could be a success, but I think the problem is people need to be breeded into it (and I don't mean this in a rude way) and they need to be willing people. But I'm not sure if a country can be turned into a communist state, without totalterianism (which is not true communism!!)

..if they didnt ...
..if they didnt require the funding they need there could could go at a much more permanent speed with limitless access to the equipment they need if you recall the author terry prachett donated at least a million pounds into Alzheimer's trust, if they used up that money they need more donations but that burst of money would have gotten them on a fast lane. thats just my opinion i think it could work but would need time to make it happen with gradual change is all i thinking

i get were your coming from but if we look at how star trek interpreted it it could be possible. yeah they were working alot but they had free for their holodecks or ship wide r&r so you wouldnt be working all the time. as for medical breakthoughs i disagree with that as in uk we have cancer research uk and alzheimer's trust witch depend on charity from the public. if they get donations there work slows down massively and they need aggressive advertising to get donations...
