Or it could be, that I don't give two shits about communism, or marxism, because through the course of my college career I studied politics, and sociology, and behavioral sciences, and agreed with the people I studied. Textbook marxism, and communism are great theories, but they only work when you are able to remove the primal / base instincts of humanity. Something, that in the course of your interactions with me on this forum, you haven't even been able to do. You immediately jump to put people on the defensive, by positioning yourself as the absolute authority. Anyone who could possibly prove to be your intellectual equal, yet on the opposite side of the argument, you immediately work to discredit. You've done it with me, with Kandrathe, with Jester, Hell, I'm sure you even squared off in the same manner with Kevin, but I'm too tired of reading your crap to go look. You are the textbook definition of why your beloved ideologies can't work. And the hilarious part of the whole thing, is that you can't even see it, because you have your nose so far up your own smug ass, that you think you're right, and that we are all some brainwashed idiots.

The problem with social, psychological and political ''sciences'' is that all of them have a huge lack of looking outside of their box.
I mean the whole argument of '''we have seen that communism doesn't work....blablabla'' while at the same time we don't realize how long our market economical world is going on, and how close we are of getting some solutions.

It started all with European countries invading and pillaging most other countries in the world. At the moment we are at a phase were in many countries in this world there is a poverty not imaginable even in the potato-famine days in Ireland.....with the slight difference that now everyone in this world knows about this.....and still doesn't do anything.
NO at this moment still we benefit a lot more from the development countries than we send back to them in aid.
We further have almost surely changed the climate on our planet permanently (on the time scale of human life) and we are sucking dry our planet from its resources, because we (as humans) are some kind of plague.

If you just look at the lives of a few % of our planets inhabitants over 100 maybe 200 years, then capitalism has done a great job. But if you look at the bigger picture we have nothing to be proud of.



I just wanted to react on your comment about textbook marxism etc,. etc, and showing that it is faulty argument.
