    Thank you for living up to my expectations.

    And for the record, what is your education background in Political theory? Did you study it in college. I know that isn't a guarantee of anything (as Ben continually proves) but it can sometimes be relevant.

      I know you like to use logical fallacies so I won't help you do that.

      I'm a Christian and don't believe in stealing. Thank you. Have a nice day.

        And also for the record, in a Democracy ANYONE has the right to vote for whoever they like regardless of that persons beliefs. And I was not an Obama supporter.

        Do you think Democracies are EVIL?

          Since you don't understand them, that's OK.

          Did you even graduate High School? I guess you don't believe in TAXES either then.

            Karl Marx was the original hippie, dirty, smelly, and shiftless (10, 14, 15, 16). His personal hygiene was so bad he suffered extensively from boils and skin eruptions all his life. Newt Gingrich’s advice to the Occupy crowd would have served well for Marx: “Go get a job right after you take a bath.”

            Marx’s family on both sides was descended from a long line of Jewish rabbis, but his parents converted to Lutheranism for business and political reasons. Marx repudiated his family values and all Judeo-Christian values. Marx was something of a juvenile delinquent (12, 18), and wasted a year at Bonn University partying and drinking and going into debt (6, 12, 14, 15, 16). His father had to pay his son’s debts and he then sent young Marx to the University of Berlin where Marx soon joined radical groups (3), and the course of his life was settled.

            Marx was incapable of holding a steady job (15), and lived precariously on intermittent low-paying work as a journalist, supplemented by several inheritances from his family and his wife’s family (Marx eagerly awaited the death of an elderly relative from whom he expected an inheritance). Other resources were mainly derived from “borrowing” money from fellow radicals (6, 9), and Friedrich Engels helped support the Marx family for years. His wife was totally loyal to him, but they lived in extreme poverty and several of their children died of malnutrition and illness (15). The evidence indicates that Marx had an illegitimate son (11) by the family housekeeper, Helen Demuth. Back when such things mattered to socialists and communists, Marx and his followers tried to conceal the existence of Marx’s illegitimate son. Demuth was a wedding gift from Marx’s wife’s family and lived with the Marx family until Karl died, receiving only room and board; in other words, Demuth’s status was identical to that of a household slave.

            From the Gale Encyclopedia of Biography as quoted in answers.com:

            “A man of immense learning and sharp intellectual power, Marx, often impatient and irascible antagonized people by his sardonic wit, bluntness, and dogmatism, which bordered on arrogance. His enemies were legion.”

            From which we can infer that Marx had a grandiose sense of self-worth (2), was cunning/manipulative (5), was callous/lack(ing) of empathy (8), had poor behavioural controls (10), and had a lack of realistic long-term goals (15). So, Marx would appear to have many traits associated with psychopathy.

            For a person who claimed to champion the working man, Marx was remarkably indifferent toward actual working people and certainly did not get his own hands dirty, not from work at any rate. Marx died in London in 1883, unnoted and unremarked. There were eleven people at his funeral, all family and/or politically radical associates. Marx left no legacy but his writings and a network of fellow psychopaths, the most influential being Vladimir Lenin, followed by a long string of would-be revolutionaries and criminal psychopaths: Stalin, Mao Tse-Tung, Kim Il-Sung, Pol Pot, Fidel Castro, and their ilk. Political and military psychopaths unanimously morph into violent criminal psychopaths when they gain sufficient power, with lawyers (Lenin, Castro) and warlords (Mao, Kim Il-Sung) predominating. The enduring appeal of Marxism is precisely among those influential few who share Marx’s psychopathic outlook, and those who can be bought or brainwashed into supporting Marxist goals.

            Marx is reputed to be one of the greatest among economic and social thinkers, but this opinion is held primarily among his muddled followers who have their own psychopathic tendencies: wannabe revolutionaries, dotty Marxist professors (Bill Ayers, Clower and Piven, etc.), and their students in journalism and law. These are areas where good little Marxists can accumulate and exercise influence, and confirm their identities within a cause greater than themselves. Without such a cause, run-of-the-mill Marxists in academia, journalism, and law would be moderately intelligent nobodies with deficient egos. Regardless of the quality of Marx’s cogitations, application of his principles to actual governance in Marxist states has an unrelenting history of destruction, disaster, and death, a record that leftists with psychopathic tendencies find quite attractive. But Hitler was at least equally psychopathic and achieved similar results on a much smaller scale, and International Socialists hate National Socialists at least as much as they hate stone cold sober productive Conservatives, also known as Classical Liberals, such as Thomas Jefferson.

            Every “classless” Marxist society that ever existed has soon dissolved into a savage dictatorship with three classes of citizens: the nomenclatura, the worker drones, and the kulaks and useless idiots who are executed or starved as an example to everyone else. There have been many attempts to implement Marxist-model systems: all have failed, just as you might expect of a system devised by a psychopath and implemented by psychopaths. Hard Marxist regimes fail, soft Marxist Social-Democratic Europe is failing now, and the hybrid Chinese bubble is threatening collapse. If the Soviets and other Marxist regimes ever had a real interest in Marxist philosophy, it was soon abandoned in favor of brute power for the elite nomenclatura.

                    Well if you were logical you would not ask me that. I implied that Marxism was bad, and you disagreed with me.

                        Please find the post where I said that.

                        I said
                        I've always liked the concepts of according to need and according to ability. While not easy to guarantee in the real world the concept has a certain nobility to it.
                        But as I've already stated, there are many concepts that I don't agree with.
                        What part of "there are many concepts that I don't agree with" did you not understand?

                        And Hitler was a man, not a political theory you moron. I have heard some argue that Fascism can lead to some stability in times of crisis. I wouldn't agree with it but it does have some value,.


                        Please go get yourself educated. Maybe you wouldn't hate so much.

                          Ok. So you said that. So what?
                          And Hitler was a man, not a political theory you moron.
                          What does that have to do with anything? What do you like about Hitler then? Are you unable to answer that?

                          More personal attacks and logical fallacies. I'm more educated than you, you ignorant mushy mouth moron!
                          Maybe you wouldn't hate so much.
                          The world is not black and white.
                          I have not problem hating Marxism and Fascism. What exactly is wrong with that? I don't understand. Please explain.
