Kreeos Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 This has nothing to do with conformity. The issue here is the fact that communism has been tried. And tried again. And it has never worked. Why? Because there is no such thing as equality. Nobody is equal. Period. Not even animals hold to that sort of nonsense, so why should we?Just because a country is "significant" or "influential" doens't give it the right to tell everybody else what to do. We don't tell other countried what to do, unless what they're doing threatens the welfare of people. Whether it's our people or theirs. You Canadians are free to ruin your own government. Just don't start killing people, and we'll stay out. If you're worried about the killing people thing you should take a long hard look at your own government. It's one of the only ones left that has the death penalty. Your government purposelly kills people on a daily basis. So you wish to be compared to unintelligent animals? I had hoped that humanity was above such nonsense. Quote Deviant Art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyrochild Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 I never said I agree with everything my government does. I am not proselytizing my beliefs, only criticizing yours.

Mike Ryan Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Now I remember why I stopped going to forums... Everyone gangs up on you at the first sign of an unpopular belief. Conform or GTFO. How very typical...@pyro Just because a country is "significant" or "influential" doens't give it the right to tell everybody else what to do. Your right! I hate those with unpopular beliefs. But guess what? Did you know that I am part of a very tiny religion by the name of Taoism? And guess what? I didnt sit down and tell everyone that if they were Christians they believed in false Gods. You started this mess kreos. Damned commie! Oh, and we kill those who kill. Equality in punishment. Oh, didnt Lenin agree with this? Yes. Hypocrite.

If you kills those who kill you should kill yourself. America is one of the leading countries in executions. And no, I didn't start this mess. I started off by saying that there was a better way than "every man for himself" and everyone else decided to gang up on me. I'm not one who just walks away when being attacked so I started to defend myself. I was the only person who is defending myself and I've had four or five people arguing against me. I was content to let it drop but then Sozo went and opened his big mouth and the shite hit the fan. Also, don't say damned commie. I don't go around calling you a damn American. I could easily do so but I don't. Like sheesh, what ever happened to tolerance? Quote Deviant Art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyrochild Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Why critisize mine when yours are probably none too better? Because I am not talking about this country's government, that country's government, or Taiwan's government. I'm talking about communism and how it does not work. Sure, it's a nice ideal. No rich? No poor! Awesome. But it has never worked and never will. You are the one who keeps trying to turn this into an Americans vs. Everyone else.

Myrddin Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 So you wish to be compared to unintelligent animals? I had hoped that humanity was above such nonsense.Never, ever place humanity over the animal kingdom, ever. The animal kingdom seems to survive better than us most of the time. And never label them 'unintelligent'.Rest assured that my comment has nothing to do with your political beliefs as, to be frank, I couldn't care less about yours or even that of pyro's. I don't embroil myself with politics, I let it happen and ride the wave. There are more important things in my life to concern myself with.

There's no such thing as impossible. And I keep trying to turn it into that because everyone else keeps going on about how great America is and how great their system is. @Myrddin Humanity is the dominant species on the planet.

Sozo Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 I was content to let it drop but then Sozo went and opened his big mouth... I jumped in with my big mouth? As I recall, I popped in during an argument between you and BoltBait. Also, don't say damned commie. I don't go around calling you a damn American. I could easily do so but I don't. He's right there, keep this at least moderately respectful. Cursing him for what he believes in definitely won't make him change his mind. Communism sounds good in theory, but utterly fails in practice. And always will, as long as humans are the ones trying to implement it. Precisely, I don't think the argument needs to go any farther than this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myrddin Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 You're right Kreeos, nature did put us in this position, but we forced ourselves further trampling on everything to get here. How many species of... anything have we made extinct? How buggered up is our planet because of us? Anyway, please, continue with your debate, I'm sure you don't need another one starting with you. pyro: yes, I do know this. Kreeos made the distinction, I carried it on for the intent of my point.

You drabasts corrupted Russia, destoryed half of Europe, put Germans through hell, trained special agents to go into countries and start revolutions, starve innocent Russians, and cause world wide fear of Communism. The only good that came form your petty politcal beliefs is the fact that we put a man on the moon. I am done. Sabrown or Kdig, PM me on the other forum when this mess is over with.
