O.K. I'll give you North Korea they're less communism and more totalitarianism, and Soviet Russia was communist, (according to a few hundred-thousand historians, and sociologist with big fat P.H.D.'s on their wall) and I know that they didn't have currency they had redistribution of wealth. The current Russia is a republic from what I can gather.Aries_Split said:There can't. Doesn't mean there can't be rules.chiggerwood said:Happy to disappoint you, but I have never got any of my info on communism from t.v.. I got my info from history books, social studys (a subject they desperately need to bring back) and sociology. I looked at places like Soviet Russia, and North Korea Which were/are communist states and found that in a communist state the government controls, and owns everything. I don't know what kind of Lenin loving utopia you're thinking of but the ones I've seen are two steps from hell.Aries_Split said:Nah, all the other intelligent people keep me company.chiggerwood said:I do not have an inflated ego. What I have is a personal feeling about governments owning banks, businesses, and wielding more power than the people, people who think that with no laws the world would be better and more orderly, and people who hear or see something they don't like so they try to get it banned, without realizing if they censor one person they censor everyone! Which is ironically the exact same feeling I get with self righteous, condescending, judgmental, people who think they're above everyone else. Oh and while we're on the subject I got a curious question. Does it ever get lonely up there on your pedestal?Aries_Split said:chiggerwood said:Nothing causes me more auto-cannibalistic rage than a bunch of other opinions that I obviously know nothing about
Also, this thread is full of inflated ego's and auto-fellatio.
All of you need to shut up, stop being condescending, accept that other HUMANS have different opinions than you, and that not everyone likes everything you do.
That process is known as "growing up".
What I hate? Trendy misanthropic whiners who are walking contradictions.
And those douche-bags that think liking a band longer than other people who like said band makes them better than said people.
I mean like, what the fuck?
And black people...
...
Not.
And your description proves my point. You know little to nothing about those things aside from what you've heard on television.
To prove my point, there is no government in pure communism and anarchy means absence of judges, not rules.
Go study, then try again.
Now on the issue of Anarchy; answer me this: How can there be law with out any judges?
And North Korea and Soviet Russia are not pure communist places. North Korea is a dictatorship, and Soviet Russia isn't a communist country because they have currency and a government.
Redistribution of wealth looks pretty good on paper "nobody's poor, nobody's rich, everyone's an equal" but that means where ever you are that's where you're gonna be(not geographically). if you don't like it too bad. There's no chance to better yourself, and you're at the mercy of who ever is doing the distributing.
this is why I hate communism.
O.K. now to the subject of anarchy. No judges, no laws, but rules. Now what are the rules. Who makes them, and finally Who enforces them. Answers: society of course, everyone comes together and uses common sense to make the best judgment of what should be done. Fine in theory, but theory's an iffy thing sort of like the theory "the world is flat" which Aristotle proved wrong. If anarchy took hold what would happen is everything would spiral out of control really frickin' quick, because people need set laws that are enforced or else there'd be chaos. Read "Lord of the Flies" for the perfect example of what happens with no laws just rules.
This is why I hate anarchy
Excuse me for not saying this earlier,but insomnia has me mentally drained, and you sorta pissed me off with your shitty remark which gave me a mental block and made me a little too hasty to respond.
So when you feel like hopping onto you're pedestal and start thinking you're the Wiseman of the mountain remember people have differing opinions, likes, dislikes, undying loves, and eternal hatreds of different things, people, and policies. It is extremely unfair to insult someone for their opinions.
p.s.it would be nice if you could stop being such a self righteous egomaniac.
