I couldn't understand people who glorified the communism until I read the materials that contained descriptions of what communism should look like. It was a nessesity as I had to posses this knowladge to pass an exam allowing me to undertake studies.
And from what I have read (apart from the Engels-Marx theories, which are dedicated to and written by people with IQ of 40 or so) the communism should be the best of the best systems ever. It has some really great ideas and so on and so forth.
But the reality... Well, it is not that full of colours as the books sugest.
I should end my post heare but there is a little P.S. that includes some of my thoughts and arguments against communism:
- in theory there shouldn't be high class and low class in the society but every leader (as communism=totalitarism) of the communist country has the power, money and everything he wants as his colleagues do either;
besides- how can you pretend there are no differences between surgeon and the guy that is working as a road builder; should they get equal amounts of money?
- there is no freedom of choice in the communist coutry- you do what you are told
- the society degenerates as ,,everyone is equal'' so who is stupid enough to work hard when you can do nothing
- someone mentions the child of a Bill Gates... well, you won't become Bill Gates in the communism; what is wrong in improving reality and being paid for it?
Ideology really dosn't matter and believe me- there is no such things in existance as this or that type of communism. It all comes to ,,who controlls the power'' question. Communism= totalitarism.
Remember to see more than one point of view and the facts that are different than those virtual ideas presented in the books.
I don't like America with it's comerce either, but it is a lesser evil than communism as you can turn away your sight and no one will claim you are ,,The enemy of the working people''.
Balance people, balance!
