I'm not going to transform this debate into a flame war, nor was that my original intention.
"Read a book. Or at least read about the COINTELPRO. Then come back. You are obviously delusional about US internal policies."
As I recall this thread was about communism. I never said the US hasn't used totalitarian methods in the past, just that such methods weren't used to to eliminate communism. However, after reading this:
http://www.icdc.com/~paulwolf/cointelpro/churchfinalreportIIIa.htm I can see you were correct, because of that incident. And, in my opinion, the ends did not justify the means.
"This idea is to my experience put forward by people who knows nothing about communistic ideology but who instead uses a couple of countries as proof."
Not just a few countries - The former USSR, Cuba, China, North Korea, Vietnam... nearly everywhere a communistic state is implemented.
Your "example" is flawed because Nazi Germany was only one in many, and even then was not a democracy.
"The rest is just rantings and flamebait, and i guess you fail for needing to resort to it."
No, the rest was not. I suppose some of it could be reguarded as such, but that's no reason to disreguard the arguments outright.
