Communism isn't a bad thing.
Theoretically of course, because we're all way too selfish to willingly be equal to our neighbors.
I mean... he did dream of us being equal

I watched like 20 seconds of that video and didn't care because it seemed like it had an agenda, but I'll always have respect for MLK because he was anAmerican that saw what the Vietnamese brothers wanted, and that was independence, plain and simple.

However, I'm gonna say, if MLK was a communist according to that video, can you knock him for it? Man, when the people are controlling you and taking awayyour freedom and not giving into your needs, you have to look for support through other means. Yeah, we can say in hindsight communism doesn't work, butit's better than oppression at the time, that's for sure.

So am I.

hm, i guess if you're not some greedy CEO you're a communist. jeebus forbid all of us be equal.

I mean,when you compare Communism to the oppression that they were facing, Communism does sounded a lot sweeter.

I probably would have jumped on that Communism bandwagon too.

Edit:
With that being said though, I honestly don't believe that crap...

not that I take that video seriously, but oh well. he was a great man regardless of his political leanings.
