Communist variant is a what as well.

The only real requirement for a government to be communist is for it to be full socialist.

How socialistic was the Soviets?

Compare to the very socialistic scandinavian governments.

Also, thread is about fags like me, not politics, leave me to my attention >:( ( XD )

generally people think of communism as a socialist for of government based on karl marx theories, socialism goes back as far as the french revolution... if you compare jean jacques rousseau with karl marx you will notice very different approaches, but both are considered socialists

edit:eh, sorry to be contributing to the derail

I think I have thread whiplash.

I know what you mean. This thread seems to go both ways at once!

The Soviets were more socialistic.

They were also a Authoritarian/Totalitarian government as opposed to a Democratic government. Which is most likely what you are thinking of.

I like dictatorships, because they seem big and evil, and we need more overt big evil things. Right now we have things like google taking your personal information and handing it out like candy, but hating google is like hating that cute girl you slept with for burning your kitchen down while making your morning pancakes. Sure, she screwed up, and your going to be really annoyed, but for services she preforms, it's worth it! Let's get something objectively immoral to hate!

Yeah, I should have been more specific -- I don't like the idea behind the communist variant of socialism, but raw socialism (which is somewhat different) as a political strategy seems like a pretty good idea, if you can get everyone to agree with it  :D

Really? Well go to the other thread and offer a rebuttal.

Make it a good one, I get +6 to my pointless economic argument skill because I am holding my text book in my hand right now.

We really don't need to hear about your sexual exploits. Or MoMs, or Nikovs, or anyone else, JUST LEAVE IT UNSAID. /sexually frustrated

For a while there was a running joke of sorts about Nikov's wife, because he mentioned her in what seemed like every other post.

As for MoM?  *shrug*
