  • @jg2040 I believe I just answered this. China is a nationalist country with a market economy. Look it up. North Korea has a monarch and a ruling class, two things highly opposed by Marx. Also the proletariat rules nothing. Cuba is making the change to market economy with Raul Castro, the new president. Silly, uninformed american. I will watch and laugh as your economy falls and crashes for the 4th time in 5 years. Have a good time at work, "comrade"

  • @intenzez

    It's easy. If you love Communism so much, go live in China, Vietnam, N Korea, Cuba. 100 million innocent civilians murdered at the hands of Communism in the 20th century. Millions of people risk everything to flee communism, no one would risk anything to go live in a Communist country. I cannot waste anymore of my valuable time on you. I have to go to work so I can earn money from our beautiful capitalist system in the country that has the highest standard of living on the planet.

  • @jg2040 Well, admitting that you have an imported asian girlfriend makes your arguement fairly invalid, but I will continue nonetheless. Well, Americans napalmed the shit out of North Vietnamese civillians. South Vietnamese people wanted the french to continue to opress them. Example, Ho Chi Minh's petition sent to the peace talk in France 1918, where he requested the west to acknowledge the rights of the vietnamese people, in general. Your girlfriend is nothing but a puppet for the west.

  • @jg2040 Fascism is on the far right.

    Cuba is turning over to market economy with Fidel Castro leaving office, his brother Raul. China is run by a nationalist party and is ran by a market economy. The people are just getting badly fucked by the system. Forced labour is in 3rd world countries, not Asia. Idiot.

  • @intenzez,my girlfriend is from Vietnam. She came over on a boat the day Saigon fell. They left Vietnam because the N. Vietnamese were going to kill her father because he was on the side of the South. They tell me how Communism destroyed their beautiful country. The people who are not politically connected live in poverty. They say it is 50 years behind the times. When she goes back to visit, they have to sneak toilet paper and feminine products into the country. Everyone is equal, equally poor

  • intenzez.

    First, I do not know where you get your political definitions, but Right Wing/Conservative = Small federal government, freedom, low taxes, individual liberty & accountability. So you are wrong there.

    Second, if you love Communism so much, then move to Cuba, move to China, move to Vietnam. You be a Capitalist, a Constitutional Conservative in a week.

    Third, I do not think that forced labor in sweat shops for 12 hours a day living in abject poverty is happy and prosperous for the Chinese

  • @jg2040 I think you seem to be forgetting something. Pol Pot was more of a nationalist, ergo, national-socialist = Right-wing. American planes killed more vietnamese civillians than Ho Chi Minh ever did. He liberated them. This is a fact, and there is no denying. Castro's people, were happy, until the dissolving of the Soviet Union, and the trade block by AMERICA, became an issue. Mao gave women rights in China, he created jobs and a happy prosperous China at that (Up until the cultural revo.)

  • How did Communism work out for the 100 Million innocent people that were slaughter in the 20th century by Stalin, Moa, Pol Pot, Ho Cho Mihn, Castro under the authority of communism? I'll take capitalism any day of the week.

  • He's not green. I bet anything he's not even vegetarian. He's a phony and a commie.
