Going with them Trump expletives I see
I felt I was very clear that communism was bad, but what can a man do?
People in communist countries have healthcare, higher literacy races, and live more active lives. They also tend to have a better sense of collectivist (in the communication sense) thought (rather it’s bad or not is most certainly up for debate). They also don’t have to worry about random shooting attacks.
I do think communism is worse than capitalism, but for me, that’s like being asked to chose who’s better “Mussolini or Hitler” (Mussolini obviously, but’s still far from a great option)
I do value freedom of speech, and as a social-anarchist I believe it’s everyone’s right within fair limits (ie. no hate speech) (there’s difference between criticism and hate). I have many values as journalist, as an educated citizen, and as someone who truly cares about the wellbeing of others. I will attack places like China, North Korea, USSR, etc. all day. However, it would be unfair to not point out where political systems have been successful.
I wrote under censorship for 14 years as a catholic school student. I learned from a very young age how to play the game. It’s one of the main reasons I’m so outspoken today. However, I’ll admit that any good writer can get a message across under any regime. You just have to learn to play the rules to your advantage. I saw through their lies, but I was smart enough to use them for my vision of how the world should be.
I really do appreciate your virtue signaling though. You complain of my personal attacks on you, but I see it’s a double standard so...
