I sympathize with the right-wing libertarians because by abolishing the state I would assume a social revolution wouldn't be much further behind and their version of pure capitalism would allow for our own vision to more easily come into existence.

For one, what makes you think I'm Texan? Because I'm anti-state and sympathize with others who are anti-state? Personally I don't see the relation.

Second, how am I confused? Soviet and Communist are the same thing now? One of us definitely sounds confused, but I don't think it's me.

there's a difference between anti-soviet and anti-communistNope this is straight up anti-communism. I swear i'v heard that they have even accused Karl Marx of every murder under Soviet communism. They probably also say that he was a satanist also.

Yes, didn't you hear? Ideas kill people. Edmund Burke, the 18th century founder of conservatism, is personally responsible for the War in Iraq. :rolleyes:

But seriously, you are right, the Soviet Story is insanely reactionary propaganda funded by far-right parties from Poland and the Baltic states.

to be fair I didn't read anything about this and assumed it was just anti-soviet. I apologize.

Dont take my total word for it, but Kwisats Haderach is correct. It is funded by far-right parties in the european parlament. It also tries to state that the idea caused the deaths etc etc...I dont really know how they get away with it. I have even heard how one of the lines at the start of the film actually states 'while hitlers holocaust was commiting genocide against millions of jews across western europe, another even bigger genocide was occuring in eastern europe':rolleyes:. As if the Soviet Union actually planned to kill the whole region (which they didnt do anyway). It just wasnt as simple as that.
