Thanks for your thoughts, Strange Famous.
It's amazing how restricted many of us are in our thinking, as if capitalism in its current form emerged from the eye of Zeus and has been this way since the beginning of time. Looking back through the history of political thought, it's amazing the number of fascinating ideologies that have emerged which lay claim to a better potential world. The progress of humankind has led us through many different stages, with our current form of capitalism only really emerging in the last few centuries. Why is it so impossible to think outside the box and at least consider alternatives?
It seems like communism is a buzz word so manipulated in the minds of our American friends that it is all but impossible to have a conversation on the topic without it being one of attack and defense.
Communism bases itself on everything capitalism can't be, so why do people like Endymon and Rekna insist on evaluating the idea in the wrong context? Broaden your horizons.
You guys are acting like someone is trying to steal your favourite bike. Relax, the world wont end if you make an attempt to understand a concept before turning on autopilot and shooting at will.
