Now let us take a look at the great achievements of communism for humankind over the past century. We all know the great purges that took place in the former Soviet Union. Stalin murdered 50 to 60 million people in his gulags. The USSR didn't have many generals when they went into World War II. If they had, maybe they could lessened their own sufferings. All the generals were liquidated by Stalin. Mao matched Stalin's achievements when it came to killing his own people. Due to the fantasies that used to run through his head, the Chinese people suffered some of the worst famines that ever occurred in the history of the world. Pol Pot harvested the heads of a quarter of his nation. That joker Kim Il Sung spent a lifetime erecting his own statues and getting his own hagiographies published, while his people suffered (and still suffer) from hunger. Now his son is busy proliferating nuclear weapons to other thugs like him. It seems these communists have been anathematic to every human institution that has been in place since time immemorial. In the former USSR, mothers were forced to give their children to the state. Why? Because in the opinion of the state, the family was a petit bourgeois institution. No human being needs this flawed philosophy anymore. It is a good sign that it is losing support, and I hope to see its last very soon.

Marxism is nothing but Nihilism.
Its aims are to destroy utterly the bond between man and fellow man Between Man and God Between the citizen and his Nation. Between a Son and his parents. Between brothers and sisters. Between Husband and Wife.
A Marxist is like a diabolical villain with a blood stained knife clenched between his human-blood stained teeth.
Destroy the Marxist in India using Strangulation, Kerosine, Machetes, Sickles and Daggers.
Smash the Marxist in the skull till his brains come spilling out.
But when I take a look at communism, I feel they haven't followed any philosophy in particular. Neither that of Hegel, nor of Marx, nor Engels, nor of anyone else. Their situation is best described by George Orwell in his work Animal Farm. It is the story of a farm where all the animals on a farm decide to overthrow their owner and take it over by force. A pig sees a dream about the whole earth belonging to them, and it shares the dream with other animals. It coins the slogan 'All animals are equal' All animals on the farm are mobilized, each according to his strength. At the very start, they mobilize the sheep and goats to continuously bleat 'four legs good, two legs bad' without stopping. As the story progresses, the original pig dies, the next pig who takes over makes numerous compromises, uses the other animals for furthering its own image, (now the original slogan becomes 'All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others') and eventually, they compromise on the dream itself, and all the animals are either killed or sold for slaughter. That in my opinion, captures the essence of communism, some fellow sees a dream, then the low level party cadre indulges in propaganda about the dream, and as time progresses, all kinds of impropriety is committed in the name of the mission, while at the same time, the so called leaders aggrandize themselves. Indeed, nothing captures the story of Kim Il Sung, or Pol Pot, or Mao or Stalin or any other thug better tha
The philosophical origins of communism can be traced to the work of the philosopher Hegel. He introduced the concept of the dialectic. In a rough sense, the theme of this concept is that contradictions are supposed to co-exist. A thesis is supposed to give rise to an antithesis, and the two must always be in conflict. For instance, if I say that 2 2 = 4, then someone else should say that 2 2 = 5, and the contradiction therein doesn't mean that one is right and the other wrong. It is something that naturally occurs, and the contradicting views and those who espouse them must neccessarily be in perpetual conflict. It gets as absurd as that. Now Hegel's work was largely academic in nature, and he made no attempts to apply it to everyday life or the society at large. That was done by Marx. He took Hegel's ideas and applied it to the society that he saw. He formed the notion of class struggle using the notion of dialectic. He divided socity itself into 2 convenient classes - the bourgeoisie and the proletariat. He viewed the history of society itself as the history of class struggles. Certainly, aren't there more things here on earth than can be classified by those two terms? Who but madmen would look on contradictions as normal, and then indulge in bloodshed over it?
Once upon a time Bengal and Calcutta were the leading Province and City, respectively, of India. Today, thanks to the Communists, that position has been lost, and Bombay has since become India's premier city.
Lock - pseudo intellectuals, artists, actors, academics, well known personalities who are communist sympathizers and NCERT staff, communist parties of every hue.
Stock - Marxist media, journos, TV channels which back Marxist agenda...etc.
Barrel - Maoists in the hinterland.
We need to attack and destroy these scum at every level.
The word Marxism must itself be outlawed in India.
We need to promote capital management, enterprises, inventions and be product driven and service driven.
The customer and the common man are always right. We need to serve them.
After Russian revolution and chinese, it was thought the world would be slowly moving towards left.In India it was a fad among academics and intellectuals to sang praise of communism.Those opposed were brow beaten.The first Prime Minster jawahar Lal Nehru's decision to ally with Stalin gave a boost to this theory.All intellectuals, writers,artists supporting socialism,communism were profusely rewarded by either India Govt. or the Russian's.We were fed with the theory that communism is panacea for all our ills.Thus we have a university in New Delhi called JNU,where all these gentlemen with same feathers huddled together to promote communism.Almost all departments in this university was funded by erstwhile socialist country's.The professor's of this university called themselves as 'Eminent'.They mutually praised each others work.But alas with the fall of Russian communism the bubble created these class burst here also.Though Britisher's dissolved communism and asked its cadres to join other political parties,in India our Leftists find fault with Russians and assumed theirs is different.Now communist like crass capitalism its sole intention is to make money.Thus communist leaders in Kerala are ceo's of either amusement park.five star hospitals, football tournament or other similar institutes.They have made a fine art of minting money.Huge amount of black money and hawala transactions are involved in this.All these actions are justified in indian variety of
Communism is dead everywhere except some parts of india and china.....
Both these ancient civilizations must have gotten tired of their old cultures and developed a sense of atheism which in turn spurs the growth of communism....
only with the passing of time, these 2 great civilizations will realize that their old cultures were far better and reject communism gradually....
