communism, 1984, propaganda

if your interested in that stuff, go watch channel 27... its a thing on North korea. Its crazy what they believe. They get mad towards the americans to this day when ever the gov't has a rolling blackout to conserve energy.

the gov't makes the citizens blame everything bad to the americans or the "white western world"

[sidekick]

that sounds interesting.

unfortunatly the people in my house are watching South Park right now.

well, take a look at America... they're headed in that direction rapidly... the US government is taking away peoples' freedom and rights under the name of 'terrorist protection policies'

oh yeah, it's a great idea to have thumb scan banking, I'd love to have to put my thumb on a machine to get my lunch from school! better yet how about u put a collar on me and a thumbprint scanner on my front door for me and set a curfew so that if I don't scan into my house by a certain time, the collar starts administering electric charges into my braaaaains






um

yeah

America's goin nuts, haha, mark my words that shit'll happen one day

[sweet~kandy]

1984 was an excellent book...


interesting show, many great facts...

[sidekick]

Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess is also a great book about a scary scary future. and it has it's own slang! can't beat that!

I watched the documentary and I thought it was really interesting. It's a shame the government only allowed us to see the lives of some hand-picked, privilleged families.

It's amazing to see a society that is so far from western influence. The society actually functions so very efficiently, but its people are total robots. One of the things I found the most interesting was the fact that state run radio in pyongyeng (sp?) is broadcast in every household, and it can be turned down, but cannot be turned off.

Everyone that was interviewed seems so happy, it's scary and unnatural.

its true that if they are happy with their way of living we have no right to change that. But the sad truth is there is 22million ppl in that country and 80% of them are starving and barely scraping by. All they care for is to work for the "leader" and make the country proud.

i didnt know this about N. korea's communism but they have 3 diffrent groups, the hammer (workers ie. construction), the hook thingy (peasent/farmers), the writing brush(intellects ie. professers)

was russia's communism based pretty much the same?

i think stalin.

hitler seems like he'd be a big wimp once you got him on his own.

[miss.myra]

neg

Hitler and Stalin were both wimpy chumps that were nothing without their posse. Both were kind of small framed, short little weak guys.

Khan was a fucking ruthless warrior that actually fought on the front lines.

[Van Tek]

Ghengis Khan needed a good pair of tits to watch bouncing

and Hitler needed to have more than just one testicle

and... Stalin needed to not have his face plastered on 1984

hehehe
