GE,

I never said they were protesting for “capitalism”. I said democracy.

As for your assertion that they build the Statue of Liberty for the TV cameras…thats retarded.

Even if that were true, are you still claiming the Chinese government was justified in brutally stomping it?

No. But it shows that Communists can be victims of the state, too, just like LaRiva and her crew are.

What about the Soviet suppression in Hungary and Czechoslovakia?

What about U.S. oppression all over the world? I don’t understand your point.

Then why did they build a paper-mache statue of the Statue of Liberty and chant things about Democracy or Freedom?

For the TV cameras, obviously. And “democracy” is not synonymous with capitalism, but in fact, the opposite. They were protesting for “democracy” (i.e. Communism).

Your boy Raimondo wrote an article on this some years ago (the Tienanmen protesters).

Hahah… The only “Communists” in Tienanmen Square were the PROTESTERS who were protesting the loss of guaranteed government jobs through the Communist Party.

I see that Silvarticus has fallen for the neocon propaganda that the protesters were for “democracy” as opposed to Communism; whereas in fact, they were protesting capitalist reforms!

Don’t worry, crazy McKinney has already proudly taken the Worker’s World Party endorsement, a group that praises brutish communist actions from Hungary, 1956, to Tienanmen Square and North Korea today.

Deran….ALL of these far left groups should be doing that. Like I’ve said before, why are collectivists so divided?

Have a care when the bolsheviks start praising you! They’re probably trying to get some face by allying themselves with more successful Left groups and movements.
