ParticipantThe hymn resembles the obeisances to Kublai Khan.

ParticipantPHILOSOPHY VS. IDEOLOGY
philosophy n. Gk. “Love of wisdom.”
The analysis, subjected to reason and evaluation (dependent upon a person’s evolution of thought), of impressions, desires, feelings, leading to the further elaboration of thought.
______ideology n. A body of ready-made beliefs containing its own ready-made logic; hence, accepted by a person without scrutiny and with an emotional need to ‘belong’: e.g. a follower.(See follow, v.)

ParticipantBut there’s no depth to discuss with TS, because he is following an ideology, unlike us. His thought is laid down for him by a leadership, and that is true of all parties except us and the anarchist-communists (the mature ones, that is). But Leninists are all overgrown teenagers.

ParticipantI should think TS is one of those who rolls about in the street brawling with members of the EDL or BNP.
Not exactly rational behaviour.Thomas_More
ParticipantI’m not interested in justifying violence, regardless of who is doing the firing.

ParticipantBijou, TrollScotsman is stalling you. It is well known that Putin persecutes homosexuality.

ParticipantStalin also persecuted sexual minorities, and outlawed Freudian and Reichian psychotherapy, as did the Nazis.

ParticipantAuschwitz couldn’t be missed. It was the size of a city. The prisoners were imploring Allied planes to bomb, but they never did. Escapees had informed the Allies, as had Kurt Gerstein, but they were ignored. They were also ignored by Pius XII.
Local Poles knew of the exterminations and taunted prisoners on the way by making throat-cutting gestures by the side of the railway tracks. Polish guerrillas killed escaped Jews as well as German soldiers.
German and other West European workers did not know. Nor did prisoners on their way, for the most part. Jews returning home after the war’s end in Poland were lynched, including the organiser of the Sobibor uprising.
German workers had brought a halt to the killing of the disabled in the 1930s by blocking Hitler’s train and demanding the end of the policy once they had discovered it. Killings continued outside Germany of course.
In Denmark workers made the seizure of Jews virtually impossible (see Hannah Arendt) by going on a general strike. The Wehrmacht in Denmark couldn’t cope, and went on strike itself. Himmler sent in the SS, but they couldn’t function. The King appeared wearing a Jewish star. Similar action occurred in Bulgaria. The Nazis could deal with violence but not with mass strike action. Contrarily, armed resistance in France and elsewhere achieved little or nothing in saving Jews.

ParticipantAnd I well remember the “communist” Chinese PLA’s brief incursion into Vietnam, singing as they set fire to peasants’ homes, “We are the people’s army!”
Not to mention their support for Pol Pot.
