Because a communist simply cannot make a decent argument or debate about how their ideology is somehow better than that of capitalism, democracy or republicanism. Besides, I rarely have a care for politics anymore from what I used to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"Because a communist simply cannot make a decent argument or debate about how their ideology is somehow better than that of capitalism, democracy or republicanism." Such a very strong generalization.

One individual forming a generalization of an entire group of individuals, despite hundreds of years of academic scholarly research on the topic, cannot be taken seriously unless one is actually willing to argue such claims effectively.

In all seriousness, I cannot take your organization serious or your ideology and politics. While I can say The Red Guard Rebels has structure, it is taken from a group of Mao supporters who killed over 1,000 counter protesters in Beijing alone in 1966. I cannot support someone who supports and org. so close to the brown shirts of the Nazi's third reich. This is my claim. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The R.B.R. is merely for roleplaying a revolutionary militia. However, the P.R.P. is actually based on the policies of a few modern-day political structures (excluding the taxation aspect).

You completely ignored what I just said and tried to spit on me like I'm going to vote for your party. Yea, it's different and interesting to roleplay as the brown shirts, remind me again how many members you have?

I had merely questioned your opinion on the party's policies. Your topic regarding the Red Guards is based on one small sect of the entire aspect of Socialism, which is completely different from the party that my main character is primarily focusing on. The People's Revolutionary Party, which is my PRIMARY organization (not my second character's organization) currently possesses four dedicated members within the organization. You and I were initially discussing "Socialism" as an ideology. What causes one to presume that capitalism benefits humanity, as a system, more than Socialism or Communism?

I could slowly deconstruct your whole socialism structure, but it would be a waste of my time. Now, the main reason why people distrust you is that flag. Did Karl Marx ever make that flag? No, it was used by leaders who carried out horrific actions upon their own people. Now, as long as you fly the hammer and sickle, do not be offended by people taking a dislike to you. If I wanted to bring up my controversial political choices, your choices might seem trivial. However, I reign it in, because I want this community to not be dragged through it all. Please, I appreciate your trying to inject realism and choices as in reality, but debates shouldn't last more than a few comments on the forum. The IPO discord has the proper tools for debating, please debate their as it needs the activity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It generally symbolized worker's struggle in the context that the "Hammer" signified the "Industrial Worker's Struggle" and the "Sickle" signified the "Agricultural Worker's Struggle". Overtime, these ORIGINAL symbols were utilized by countless regimes that had underwent countless internal and external progress and conflicts, which is available for discussion if one desires. As I've always stated, a lot of individuals base their ideas of Socialism from "The Red Scare" propaganda that was promoted by the West during a state of war. It is their decision to engage in such discussions on the matter. However, it shall be the party's duty and obligation to educate the masses on the truth on such matters in order to raise the Revolutionary Class Consciousness of the masses. P.S. I was tagged and invited to this discussion prior to witnessing individuals classifying my person as "stupid", without possessing the opportunity to dissolve what is OFTEN heavily biased and unobjective opinions on the ideology. <--- Political science major and future professor... not forcing any discussion on to any one, merely responding to a few individuals that decided to engage in personal attacks on my person from the beginning.

Hi, fell asleep last night it was like 5 am. "You and I were initially discussing "Socialism" as an ideology. What causes one to presume that capitalism benefits humanity, as a system, more than Socialism or Communism?" Well I would go into massive detail on how Communism has had no good effect on the world. It has only brought death, greed and corruption to the eastern european people. I seriously cannot go any further. I had a conversation with my friend's grandmother, they are 100% polish. Communism has changed her life and when she thinks about these millennials craving for a communist turnover, she trembles. I have just about given up politics. I unfollowed every political page on instagram, I don't watch the news, I don't care for political youtube channels. This whole world we live in is a hologram, as humans we inhabit this spacesuit we have to keep clean. I am more worried about myself and the well being of those sitting next to me, how their day is going and how I can help their problems. Anthony Bourdain's death really put me down and from their on I just left trying to "find" myself in politics. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 11, 2018 Going over my last comment due to boredom, I think my last paragraph sums up how I am really feeling at the moment. I'd love to debate politics and although we may not seem eye to eye, in all their is one trait two have in common. It took me a long time to realize that.
