Or libertarianism, which is just like anarchy but has a chance to succeed in today's society.

quote:The first act by virtue of which the State really constitutes itself the representative of the whole of society - the taking possession of the means of production in the name of society - that is, at the same time, its last independent act as a State. State interference in social relations becomes, in one domain after another, superfluous, and then dies out of itself; the government of persons is replaced by the administration of things, and by the conduct of processes of production.

The State is not "abolished." It dies out.

- Friedrich Engels

Man, why does Chine have to be such a bitch to its people?

China is a communist dictatorship. They believe that religion is contrary to the Party, so they suppress religion. They won't even let the Falun Dafa do their exercises without rounding them up.

I don't think that's exactly true.

On the large scale, like countries, yes I'd totally agree with that.  Marx's idea of one party "as the vangaurd of the people" sounds like something dreamt up in an opium high.

On the small scale, like those little communal groups, communist principles do work.  It's important to note that on such a scale, it is voluntary.  

However, Marx's ideas of global communism as the end of pollitical evolution are stupid.
