yes most western countries are.. but I'm tough on my country, as a citizen it's my responsibility to at least try to inform people here of things they other wise wouldn't know(concerning exploitation and imperialism)

lol You're (*)(*)(*)(*)ed for doing anything ever now, thats like a black mark behind your name. thats what puts me off joining the communists.

They're not Stalinists (least i dont think) seems more pure Leninsm. The Brtish Communists, from the impression i get are more Cuban inspired. I would hope the Irish would be the same.

I was gonna join Solidarity. I emailed them and they didn't even reply, probably saw i was ex SSP :D thats pretty much the problem, there are too many left parties, we just need one Socialist/communist party.

do you :P

A lot of nights i actually dont, just stay awake till i'm outta beer :D

I havent even read the links yet (having a Glaswegian evening, which means ive been drinkin since 4 :P)

But please dont join the SWP - they're a bunch of Trotskyite nutters. Join the Communist Party of Ireland before them. I believe the Irish communisty are Lenists like the Communist Party of britain, who i am considering joining.

i know a bit about both parties (family involvement) and I'd Prolly say socialist workers party...but our ideals may be different so take your pick

well people of most Western nations have been brainwashed that socialism is bad. I'm unfortunate, not in that i can see my country, but what i have seen . i see ALOT of exploitation and oppression the u.s gov. not only of my people (Native American) but of the world at large. But please don't get me wrong i LOVE my country and the people in it and that is why American ignorance hurts me the most.

Im not so (*)(*)(*)(*)in silly, im no a billy am a tim

Not a bad days work. We still need to improve though, recent forms been shocking.

I'm off for the night. Good luck in your exams mate.

Hahaha, it's good to read a rant now and then. I've pretty much given up debating the Israel-Gaza situation, you just won't get some people to really look at and accept the truth, of course the problem is not that zionists here ignore the facts it's that the BBC does.

I'm thinking of putting together a thread on environmental issues generally and specifically the proposed third runway for Heathrow, I'll let you know if I do. For now though I think I'm gonna find some right-wingers to bait. ;)

I'll be at Oxford next year with luck. Do you find you write a lot differently to how you speak? I wouldn't recognise myself if I spoke the way I write on here, I don't know what it is.

Hezbollah and Hamas. Both are deemed terrorists and militants but Hamas for example was elected in the most free and fair elections in all the arabic world. I often find myself defending Islam pretty much for the same reason as you, people talk about muslim immigrants in a way which just doesn't correspond to my experiences living in an area with a large muslim population. And then the religion itself comes up for so much sh*t it's unbelievable, just because it's seen as a foreign religion and largely non-white to attack Islam is seen as acceptable.

I like being able to write in a posh way so anyone trying to act like on here a prick gets a shock.

I saw the racist harry thread, it always amazes me when people, Americans especially, start attacking Irish people by saying they support "terrorism". This from people who's country celebrates to this day as their greatest achievment forcing the English out with violence.

Maybe we (us and Joe) should start organising some attacks in certain threads, just overwhlem the capitalists with three long posts for every one of theirs. :D I remember in the early days of politicalfever me and Joe used to have a good tag team going, that was a fun time. Debating with the intelligent and polite posters, winding up the other ones.

I just saw your rep :D, thanks.

Football's going so well right now, Man Utd top of the league and on great form: 10 games without conceding! Just a shame Stoke got screwed by Chelski.

I'm doing fine, but Maths exams are always a (*)(*)(*)(*)(*).:ignore:
One of my best friends just lost his Dad though, to cancer. I can't even imagine what he's going through but he seems to be holding up alright.

Did you see the things that Irish.Cursory guy made in one of the Gaza protests? Not only does he make unfounded criticisms of socialism but he criticises the way I spell my username with a sentence that begins "For starts":-D

Do you know if there's a thread about the Israeli "ceasefire"? I might start one if there's not, it's a complete joke to call a unilateral ceasefire whilst keeping your troops in foreign territory.

I probably am, I've not really been posting much here really. I start debating and then get a couple of idiotic replies so I can't be arsed to continue debating till the intelligent replies come. Still, I'll check the thread out, it's always easy to wind up nationalists and royalists. ;)

How you goin at uni? Enoying it?

Choke him with his sash lol Classic

He's just trying to get a rise out of people.

It's funny seeing someone trying to insult whole nations of people, particularly when they are from somewhere as (*)(*)(*)(*)e as Scotland.

That depends on what you know, I got an offer from Oxford so this time next year I'll be part of the British upper class. :D

Have you been watching Celeb BB, we've got Tommy Sheridan reppin for the socialists in there now.:mrgreen: Maybe it's just me but I would think with Israel bombing the (*)(*)(*)(*) out of Gaza any right-thinking socialist would have better things to do.

My mistake, meant your avatar. :giggle:

Thanks Ill take a look

Nice avatar....Viva la international brigada!

Good to know. (Are ye aware then that ye flag keeps changing lad?)
I'm glad you felt you could ask me my opinion. It's certainly nothing that should be tolerated and I was quite jaw droppingly surprised when I realized he was not just joshing back and forth with you.
That sort of obvious and overt insults are strictly against the TOS here. Aye as much as ye can, not answering to the bait is the way to go. Harder said than done for a lot of us. Meself included. :mrgreen:
