Stalin was a monster (also State Capitalist, but that's another story). All the travesties that has taken the place under the banner of communism where done by people who were evil regardless of what they said their political ideology were.

I said "it is pretty much dead". Communist China will fall too because people don't like oppressive regimes. They tried back at Tiananmen Square... the sequel is going to happen somewhere in China.Communism is not dead, I wish it were. We are sending our dollars to a Communist country every day and moving towards a situation where we are are surpassed by a Communist country as the largest economy in the world.
Capitalism works and a reason why it works is because of philanthropy. Strong families. A sense of community. This dies when socialism rears its perverted head. Socialism is the road to barbarianism. It is anti-social. It requires coercion and force. People resent it.Socialism doesn't work, but then again, capitalism doesn't work either.
It more than missed the demographic equation.A sustainable balance can work, but that's not easy. Social Security is a very good example. It was thought to be a good idea at the time, and logically, it did not seem impossible to fund it in perpetuity, but you're right, they missed the demographic equation.
100% on the money. Personal responsibility. What government intrusion into this has done has not only killed personal responsibility, but has people looking to government to not only manage their lives but to act as a machine to thieve wealth from others... for their benefit. That's sick... and that sickness is rampant. And Obama... he is the epitome of that perverted culture.I am sure you would agree that this is a great reason why people's retirement savings should be paid for with their own money. That way it doesn't matter how large the population, or the altering ratios of retirees to workers.

Straight white male, so... Commies. Commies always kill the intellectuals. I'm not saying the learned had it easy under the Nazis, but at least we had a chance.
If "worse for me" includes my suffering resulting from the persecution of others, then Nazis.
Completely silly and lfalse.
Communism's problem was repression, that would result in death..
Interesting in that, by and large, that communism had to be forced, while Nazism was embraced...even in our nation, by far too many..
For me, anyway, better red than dead...

But you are right, most of the German people embraced Nazism as it lead them out of the mess Weimar and reparations had caused.
Nazism was out there for all to see and no one after the war in Vietnam cared one iota about 3 million Cambodians.
No, he's wrong. And even with the paltry 30% that Hitler managed to muscle, steal and buy, the vast majority of those did not know what they were getting into.
What are you referring to, Pol Pot?
When you have 15 or more political parties running in an election, 34% is actually quite good. In fact Hitlers party captured 230 out of 538 Reichstags seats. Most people look upon these results like it is a two party system, it wasn't.
I'm sorry, but that does not support the statement that "most Germans supported Nazism".
1. 30% is not most
2. Of those 30%, most had no idea what they were getting into.
Have it your way, I think we are getting into semantics.
I think the statement "most Germans supported the Nazis" is dishonest and apologetic. Hitler seized power with ~1/3, most of whom had no idea what was going on. Perhaps, and this is being generous, 5% of the population supported Nazism as it would become.
Additionally, I think it's slander of German people. You're turning ~5% into "most Germans".
Communists, because they believe socialism can only be achieved by globalism. The ultimate goal of communism is to destroy nations. I'm a socialist, but I'm a NATIONAL socialist, not an international one. I actually would have supported the pre-1930 National Socialist German Workers Party, which was not just socialist in name, had I lived in Germany at that time.
