I am aggainst communism for the simple fact I don't want the government controlling, me.
This statement shows that you are ignorant on the subject. In a true communist society, the government will not be controlling you.
Listen; because I know you personally, I can say that I believe that if you truly understood what Communism is all about, you would be for it. Wouldn’t you want to see the end of classes? No more rich, no more poor. No more disadvantages. No more competing with someone who has it so easy, while your working your ass off just to get by.
Socialism is democratic or it is nothing. The people have control. When I say “democratic” I’m not talking about the shit we live in today, where I believe Coldblooded said it best, “we don’t live in a democracy, the rich do”. I mean a democracy where we all play a full and active part not just in voting but also in actually running our communities, our workplaces, and our society. Eventually, pointless jobs would be extinct. Working hours, shorter. More free time. But I guess your against this all?!?
In America's "democratic" society we have already seen the powers abused by our governement
Yes, this is Capitalism at it’s finest, a minority of a minority controlling the country. This will never change. It’s too late, you cannot stop this.
Also what if a communist nation falls under the power of a evil dictator. There is not garuntee that this dictator can be taken out of power.
Well, you can say “what if” about anything, comrade. “What if” Bush bombs another country. “What if” another evil man such as Bush comes to power. “What if” etc. etc. etc. In a true communist society (unlike USSR’s Stalin) a dictator cannot stay in power.
Communism has the groundwork and idealism of Christianity, however is only a pipedream.
Why is it only a pipedream? Is it because America wont allow it any where? What happens when America crumbles? You don’t think a communist society has a chance of emerging?
Have you read what Coldblooded has written on this thread? If not, I suggest you go back and read. If you would like to lean more study Marx. I suggest the
