If we look at capitalist pysch ops/military intelligence martial artists attempts at manifesting and directing bad chi at goats, to stop their hearts etc, theres no doubt these men, may have been highly skilled trained martial artist experts, but alas the consequence of directing and using bad chi, or directing chi with bad intentions, or a selfish greedy capitalist heart is you end up a sad miserable old git who looks like Pat mustard, with the personality, charm, sideboards and moustachio of a sadistic grubby paedophile loser. Sad capitalist psych ops intelligence have still to learn, that bad chi directed against the poor, will only reflect back against themselves and ultimately lead to bad luck directed back against themselves.. |

janice battersby - agree with most of what you say, esp the bad karma coming back at you etc. All too true and probably won't be learned even when more terrible things happen.
But the "beauty of communism" ... get real. I used to be the first to stand up and tell people how Cuba was so much better than the US, how at least all the kids were literate and world-aware etc.
Well I am currently working in Romania and I'm sickened by what I see; more than 15 years after the fall of a communist dictatorship, the population are completely deadened by communism. No one has the slightest understanding of how to make anything happen by themselves, they have to have someone else tell them how to do it - anything, from how to manage a store, run a film crew, to making a sandwich - the entire populous is mentally impotent, and has never been taught to think for themselves. Their faces are largely dead from inexpression, their talk is lifeless through fear of raising a voice. How can people help eachother if they can't even help themselves? Its like two one-legged men supporting eachother.
No kidding about helping the poor - most people here will always be poor because they don't have a clue how to dig themselves out of the pit.
Don't fool yourself about the "beauty" of communist governments: they end up just as corrupt as a capitalist state. Why else would the second largest building in the world (after the Pentagon) be a "dream" palace that Romania's leader built for himself, destroying the historical old town to do so?
And the one of the world's most beautiful nature sanctuaries, Danube Delta, was almost completely raped by the "beautiful" communist government's plan to turn it into an industrial and agricultural wasteland.
Communism is a theory. It looks great on paper, especially if you are poor. But the reality of crushing your populations spirit by housing everyone in identical concrete shoeboxes is plain evil. Just as evil as the worst capitalist regimes. In fact maybe more so - because you never get a chance to speak your mind, you end up not having a mind.
Get on a plane; from Bucharest to Belgrade you'll find millions of people who will never reach anything close to their proper human potential. All residue from past communist governments.
And drop your idea of communism as anything approaching beautiful. It was just another bad experiment.
