"Marxism is a political philosophy, communism is a form of government."
And who, pray tell, wrote the Communist Manifesto?
"And it's cute that you think the Chinese are still communist."
I know that the CCP's turning de facto fascist has been a big disappointment for you, Leo. 🙄 But they simply realized that Marx-Lenin-Mao's stupid ideas weren't ever going to work.
And don't overlook that both of these totalitarian systems of government use precisely the same methods of population control. The CCP of course kept those methods firmly in place, so that part I'm sure didn't bother you a bit, Leo. 😂 😂 😂
@Thinkerbell When have I ever said communism "worked?" And I've written a critique of the Communist Manifesto, which was pretty easy as Marx got almost everything wrong. I've always been upfront on here that I support a blended socialist/regulated capitalist economy, which happens to be what most countries in the world have.
Totalitarianism can exist under any type of economy. There have been plenty of capitalist dictatorships.
You're arguing with an imaginary "liberal" who doesn't exist anywhere except in your own mind. Should I hold you responsible for the atrocities carried out by capitalist regimes? Where should I start? We're literally living on land that the original inhabitants were genocided from in the name of the almighty dollar.
All I watch for the most part his teenage mutant Ninja turtles anymore on Nickelodeon. I got my boys hopelessly addicted to it now as well. My favorite character is Raphael. He has anger issues and is very impulsive. I can really relate.
odd pick but Scrappy Doo... i just loved that character in that he was willing to kick the crap outta whatever the supposed monster was. i kept yelling at the screen when the whole gang kept him from fighting n got so annoyed. it's gonna just be some old dude in a mask anyway let scrappy take him out :D
