  1. Ooooo my head hurts! :frown:
     
  2. I am watching Star Trek again do not know why but I can watch them over and over again.
     
  3. Yes, and I was just pointing out that 'Communism' as operated by the USSR, China and N Korea is diametrically opposed to the ideas Karl Marx put forward 150 years ago. It has become a cliche to say that Marx was not a communist! The totalitarian tyrannies of communist regimes eventually fail utterly as political systems, maybe after a few decades of apparent success. But Marx's insight into the importance in society of ordinaty people, as opposed to leaders & elites, remains as true today as ever.

    Feel free to disagree with me, or insult me, by the way - that's what freedom of speech means.
