Hey Think !!! Would you have imagined that... Even MercoPress is now referring to Jorge Asis, who the hell was him you asked a few days ago... What a coincidence don’t you ”think”?? Maybe some editors in Uruguay are actually taking the time to read over the commentators who are well informed and know what they are talking about................;-)

Yet people learn you should abandon the lies of 678 and the tweets of @CFKArgentina and start following and learning from the people who actually know how the world works

How many times, Mercopress do not write the articles. They pick them up from media outlets and post them. They are not concerned with the editorial integrity of the article, it's in the public effing domain! they simply reproduce it on this forum!

There are about a million people with the nickname chino, china, negro o negra in Argentina...not necessarily Mao followers nor African descent.
Hi Pomi!
Did you come back to celebrate another xeneize victory?
Groan!
Oct 09th, 2013 - 06:10 am - Link - Report abuse 0Not even the Chinese are Maoists anymore.
Been a long, long time since they all wore the the same blue overalls.

Haven't heard much of him before but like the sound of this: ”The current president is Carlos Zanini, who has achieved a great feat: he leads a government with strong Peronist roots although he is decisively anti-Peronist. Of all government members the man less respected by hardcore Peronists is precisely Zanini” Transversal left in action =) And the fact he was a Maoist in his youth, so what, half the New Labour cabinet started as Trots, and in his youth he was even a Peronist it seems but grew out of that too! I'm still backing Timmerman but this guy also sounds like a good potential Presidnt in 2015 =)
Oct 10th, 2013 - 12:23 pm - Link - Report abuse 0And of course I'd back Cristinita if she runs again, but maybe Think is right about this... George Galloway is strongly hinting that he might run for Mayor of London, so maybe she could run for Mayor of Buenos Aires; imagine that, from Boris and Macri to George and Cristina, our two great capitals could finally have the leadership they deserve =)
Galloway and CFK - very similar :-D

” I love that you can still find, in Argentina, people who think that Maoist social and economic policy is or was ever viable. He would probably start with a good old purge followed by some cutting of grass and killing of birds.”
I say….:
Mao was indeed not the sweetest of guys…..
His disregard for individual human life was most certainly encouraged by the actions of those English Late Victorian Social Darwinist Eugenicists that ruled the most of Asia at the time of his birth…..
Some ~50,000,000 souls allowed to starve to death in the Great Indian Famines between 1875-1900 to instaurate the Capitalistic System must surely have inspired that young Communistic mind…..
You know, those ~50,000,000 souls so conveniently “Airbrushed” from the English history books….
Capitalism has nothing to do with it , right ? Mr Think ?

Oct 11th, 2013 - 05:05 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Think doesn't seem to know history. Mao killed 50 million with relative ease and with intent to establish his now failed dream.
The Indian famines were the result of negligence, not intent on behalf of the Raj.
The population of India at the time was already in the 100s of millions and even had the British managed to implement a full response in time it would still have killed millions given how quickly those Famines spread. You also seem to forget the Hindus had vast amounts of cows sitting idly by and yet in their own infinite fucking wisdom to avoid eating the “Godly” beef they simply left them alone despite this being an ample and vast source of food in the sub-continent.
Mao by the way was in no influenced by us but rather by Lenin and Marx obviously combined with the fact that like his counterpart to the North Stalin, he was a right ruthless bastard.
Hi Think,
Oct 11th, 2013 - 06:35 pm - Link - Report abuse 0suggest you read Wild Swans by Jung Chang.
The immediate and personal damage to real families caught up in - arguably - the greatest tragedy the world has ever experienced, and to the most populous nation on earth ... all at the hands of the great philosopher, Mao Zedong.
The 'great' are so very, very good at being unable to accept it when their paradigm has gone sour.
We see it every day in the news from South America.
Luckily, cultural memories only last a few generations,
and history books tell the story that is acceptable to the rulers of the day;
... how would we survive psychologically and, as a species, stay sane if we were reminded at every turn and every minute of every day, of the real nature of the human condition?

In my humble opinion....., our species will first become sane the moment we all realize that we have to watch and control the real nature of our human condition at every turn and every minute of every day of every year of our lives......

Oct 11th, 2013 - 07:43 pm - Link - Report abuse 0No reply to my first comment Think? If you did have a familiarity with Scandinavian and Germanic influence in Britain you would realise that the term is a geographical rather than a political one. It traces its origins to the Anglo-Saxon and Irish invasion period of Britain, the Germanic peoples in the south gave it the term “Great” as it alluded to the islands vast size. If you knew history you would be aware that the only islands these people were aware of were located in Europe. And seeing as Britain is the largest of said islands the terminology makes sense.
But on an unrelated note Britain along with Rome are probably the only civilisations worthy of such a total based on their history. Thats if you were going to use such a term in politics anyway.
“In my humble opinion....., our species will first become sane the moment we all realize that we have to watch and control the real nature of our human condition at every turn and every minute of every day of every year of our lives......”
Good luck with that shit.
Nice replies, Think - teased you into them, I think.
Oct 12th, 2013 - 10:07 am - Link - Report abuse 0Accepting Conor's 'Great', I am willing to accept that Great Britain has been Greater Britain in the days of Empire; today, ex-pats suffer saudades for the landscapes of the British Isles.
I'm glad to see that Argentina is becoming 'saner'; the decimation of your armed forces can do nothing but help.
The real trick will be when you get really sane by doing the same thing to your politicians - though I think you need to go a lot further than mere decimation.

Oct 12th, 2013 - 09:52 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Yes it would be an act too cruel to send you the man that licked Saddam Hussein's butt. Unfortunately we will have to continually suffer his presence.
I'd like to 'accidentally 'send him to the Falkland Islands and see how he gets on in the FIDF club when he explains his plans for the Islands after a March and Shoot competition..........
