That sounds like the Communist Manifesto! | | Wow, you lost me with that because I detest communism, and any form | whatsoever of Socialism. I'm extremely conservative and anti-communist. You are so /judgmental/ and not even aware of it. Intelligent and thinking people can listen to arguments about something they do not personally /like/ and find cause for enjoyment of the line of reasoning even if it was used to support a argument they do not approve of. Intelligent people think first and agree or disagree later. Stupid people agree or disagree first and never think. | Looking past even that aspect of it: I don't view things as "us vs. them" | quite like you do. You are the /worst/ "us vs. them" person I have ever seen posting here. You also missed the point of that speech by a mile. I have been holding out on this, but you, sir, are an idiot. -- Erik Naggum, Oslo, Norway Act from reason, and failure makes you rethink and study harder.
