Guest LooseCannon Report post Posted December 3, 2002 Hey everybody: I think we have gotten off topic. We're now talking about Bush, Republican Congress, safe-sex/contraception, China's reproduction policy, threats of banning, etc. I think we have lost sight of the one important thing in this thread. When do we get the Pringles, and where will they arrive? Finally someone who gets it. The rest of you: Stop trying to derail the topic!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest redbaron51 Report post Posted December 4, 2002 Once again, I am thankfull. However those pictures relate more to the past of communist activity. What we at the communist part are looking for, is something that can be linked to the future. Something fresh and new and futuristic, to provide hope and inspiration. Like this: I think the world will look like this with communism, only without that face in the clouds. c'mon. communism should worship Iron Maiden. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Olympic Slam Report post Posted December 4, 2002 Can I have Kettle Chips? I don't believe there are different classes of chips under communism. It would be unfair for one type of chip to be of a higher class than another chip. Much research will be done to find the true chip that personifies equality.

Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted December 4, 2002 I think that a generic brand called "Potato Chips" will be the Communist Chip. All this has given me a tremendous idea for another Ask The Dictator-ish thread, but I don't think I'll do it. Anyone else can use the Smarks Socialist Party idea if they want though.

Guest Vern Gagne Report post Posted December 4, 2002 Shouldn't a facist party be started up to counter balance the communist party. Instead of Pringles, the Facist give out Doritos. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Olympic Slam Report post Posted December 4, 2002 Shouldn't a facist party be started up to counter balance the communist party. Instead of Pringles, the Facist give out Doritos. Facist, communist, pretty much the same thing. I suppose a facist would supply the people with Pringles with extra ruffles as some sort of revolutionary alternative.

Guest Junah98 Report post Posted April 16, 2003 Hey everybody. In times like these, I sincerely urge you ALL to stop this US imperialism and join the communist party. Its time to stamp out the 'left' of today and bring back the passion we once had! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Powerplay Report post Posted April 16, 2003 Hey everybody. In times like these, I sincerely urge you ALL to stop this US imperialism and join the communist party. Its time to stamp out the 'left' of today and bring back the passion we once had! Wow, is there a fetish for raising dead threads going on around here or what? Oh, yeah, the post. Basically, Communism hinges on the idea of everyone having the exact same thoughts and ideals, and being robots or mindless drones, for lack of better terms. If one person puts themselves before the state, it begins to fail. Plus, Communism just doesn't work because it lacks any real motivation: Why become a doctor when you make as much as a guy at McDonald's? It also rewards laziness and punishes hard work because no matter how much work you do, you only get the same amount of pay and benefits. I need not do anything as long as the state pays my salary and there are fools who will do more work to pick up my slack. In general, the whole Communist system is flawed because there is no rewards to be had of it. The only people who benefit are those who don't want to work or don't work anyways. At least, that's my take on Communism. And did you support the tyrannical regime in Iraq? Or are you one of those people who wants "Peace in our time"?

Guest Crazy Dan Report post Posted April 16, 2003 Unfortunately Communism makes only a good theory, but is not realisitic in practice. Maybe if there was a small enough country, where everyone was poor and worked the same job as everyone else is the only place I could see Communism working. Events in history has shown that no way Communism will ever be successful. The Soviet Union showed that if a whole country is Communist, that it is very, very easy for those in power to abuse those beneath them. Also, countries like Cambodia, Cuba, and China have shown the abuse that those in power can commit. Man is an animal which needs competition and reward for working his BUTT off. Doctors should make more money than McDonald's workers. I agree with Power Play on the other reasons why Communism can't work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted April 16, 2003 I thought this dude was banned along with the other two (or was it three) Communist trolls.

Guest Powerplay Report post Posted April 16, 2003 He sounds fun to play with. I really wish we hadn't banned Ozymandias and a few other people. They were great entertainment, damn it. You can't pay for this . Oh, and where the hell is fk teale when you need him? I find myself reading his awe-inspiring flame a lot now; it makes me fall out of my chair laughing .

Seriously, if it's going to take this long for the State to manufacture and distribute the Pringles, I'm just going to stay with good old-fashioned capitalism.

Guest Powerplay Report post Posted April 16, 2003 Wait, he's handing out Pringles?! Wtf, dude! Communism dictates that you share those with us, even though we did nothing to earn them. Cough it up, man. And again, don't ban him. He hasn't been too stupid outside choosing Communism as a political system of choice. I think this could be fun if we just let this draw out a little longer. By the by, in response to "The left is a joke", well, duh. But then again, Communism is a far bigger one.

Guest Powerplay Report post Posted April 17, 2003 I, personally, just wanted to see if he could refute even half of our arguments against Communism. It's fun to play with extremists! I mean, look at Rob Johnstone and to a lesser extent, Ozymandias and Dreamer. You could have endless fun disproving them with simple facts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest DrTom Report post Posted April 17, 2003 The difference, Powerplay, is that Ozymandias and Johnstone believed what they were saying. This chap was posting what he did just to get a specific reaction. While I agree that socking it to intellectual featherweights is jolly good fun, I'm not going to allow pathetic trolling just because of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
