Technology helped end communism by bringing in information from the outside.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
When I was fighting communism, there was rapid development of satellite television and cell phones, and communism, to survive, would have to block all these information devices.
Communism is a monopolistic system, economically and politically. The system suppresses individual initiative, and the 21st century is all about individualism and freedom. The development of technology supported these directions.
To me, technology was a means to an end to achieve the social justice goals, stronger democracy and more effective government that is the aim of what I do.
Communism didn't work because people weren't ready for it, it was corrupt, and because it squelched individualism.
Communism is like one big phone company.
Ladies and gentlemen, communism didn't fall. It was pushed.
Communism in Cuba will collapse sooner or later because you can't control the free flow of information. Communism prevents organizations from developing by stopping the flow of information. The system is based on police and listening devices and triggers the worst characteristics in humans.
Vietnam was really an idealistic thing to stop the spread of communism, which, incidentally, it did. It was a pretty costly way to do it, but it achieved its goal.
Communism is in conflict with human nature.
Let's not talk about Communism. Communism was just an idea, just pie in the sky.
