communism is awesome!

[Goldminotaur]

um, no not really

[FreeMarketEdu]

Damn right we shot down their gay ass satellite, and we'll shoot another one of theirs too, because we got the biggest dick of all. That's right, I said it.

funny, if it's not your honest opinion. the opening ceremony was always nothing to be excited about, but for china it was something else. they spent 70 billion dollars preparing for the event and they wanted the opening to be awesome. to me the opening was less powerful, dramatic, and "dick waving contest" but instead more "wow" and "impressive." it's not a military march, it's a las vegas/radio city show, but much more extreme.

btw: there were 2008 drummers, 15,000 performers total.

[Goldminotaur]

I thought it was cool, I mean only a few opening ceremony only came close to its magnitude and choreography. I understand it wasnt a military march, but that much money and time, people and skill to pull something off of that scale is certainly showing you have bravado

[mariomguy]

any country could've pulled off what china did. china just took the next step and did it. they made a stadium just for hosting the olympics and the opening ceremony in less than 7 years. they gave a film director an unlimited amount of resources to complete a show. they got normal children to carry their nation's flag to its pole, and had one of them sing the nation's anthem (but now there's accusations of lip-syncing). it was a show that avoided politics and power to bring something beautiful.

[niamhsarno]

you have some very true points here. Nice job. I love dick waving contests! Hahah hilarious Chinese accents<3

[kalsangart]

hay man you did good job the Communism is not only china japan also

[Goldminotaur]

Japan is a Parliamentary democracy, Japan was never communist, sorry dude

[Ghstrdr13Plyr]

Nice vid. I think that Communism should just fall off the face of the earth.

Now Marxism, that's a totally do-able form of government, but Communism seemed to takes its ideas and raped them to death to form what is now China and Vietnam. Russia doesn't even count since Capitalism saved their asses and now became a powerful nation (i.e. Cold War).

So to put in short: CAPITALISM > ALL!!!

[feelie75]

I think you said "dick" about 50 times in the video. Apparently you enjoy this word, haha ;). j/k.

Also, communism is a great idea!....on paper anyhow. In practice it's usually abused, but the idea is actually good if you study up on it.

Nice editing. implessive stereotyped ranguage skirrs you have too.

[Goldminotaur]

Well, TRUE communism is a good idea, but you have the human element and that is why we will never see TRUE communism and you will just have mock communism that you see in China and Vietnam.

I think Socialism is easier to attain and live with then Communism, but Capitalism and a democracy is all I need to be happy

[feelie75]

well said, nice reply, I agree with that.

thanks!
