The problem is that some people seem to lack understanding of what the word "communist" means, they cannot it seems free themselves from Cold War propoganda and the "Red Menace".
Communism does not, never has, never will, mean Stalinist Russia, Maoist China, or any other Nation State in the twentieth century.
Communism is a worldwide phenomona, which will be estabished by the collapse of capitalism, there will not be "communist countries" at war with "capitalist countries" - what will happen is the unity of working men and women across the world to rebuild the world into a communistic utopia, out of the ashes of a collapsed and failed capitalism.
What will destroy capitalism? One final world war? Ecological disaster? The sheer irresistable will of the people who long for a democratic communist world, or will the free market simply implode and grind to a halt, unable to function anymore through its inherent contradictions?
These are the questions - not childish comments that communists must be murdered because Stalin was a murder, and Stalin admired Lenin who admired Marx...
