It's so good to be here,and i'm just going to begin my story.

I will first start,why i was an anti-communist,you see:
I'm raised in an family that has many political views,my dad is an socialist,my mom is an social democrat my grandad is an right-winger and my grandma is an communist. I didnt like politics at first but(especially communism i hated it - i thought that communism is north korea :laugh: stupid me),when i traveled into portugal i saw many homeless and poor people and it totally hurted me to see how people live,we were staying in 4 stars hotel and the poor people were begging for some money,this scene totally changed me,... So i started to look for solution that can help the working class/poor people,and i found that communist,far-left politics does,and their ideas are awesome as hell. So i started to read,read,read about far-left politics are and soon i joined the movement. Due to my dad that hates communists

This is very short why i'm turning into a commie. (sorry for my English)

I'm an defender of peace and pacifist movement,my idol is GANDHI who always inspired me. So im seeking that an communist revolution needs to be done by peace. :rolleyes:
(yes i know that gandhi was racist,this is cuz he was a hindu. You need to read some about hinduism so you will get it),but i try to see as many good in every one.


I'm very connected with the beauty of nature.And i want to keep it that way clean,beautiful,free. So green communism also works for me.

I listen to:Psychedelic Rock,jazz,hippie rock.

Hm what else oh yea and im almost 15 years old.

Oh yea my religion: Im an Buddhist,but as many Buddhist i dont believe in existence of god
And im an vegetarian for 1.3 years now


Im also interested in Salvia divinorum,also in marijuana-(although i didn't tried it yet),about psychedelic drugs some other time ok :P

The "peaceful" part is a bit difficult being that capitalism will have to end in revolution. Socialism can't be voted in, especially in this political climate.

Welcome!

Your english is absolutely understandable, although this had me smiling:


and the poor people were bragging for change

(It's called begging -- bragging is not recommended if you want people to give you money :lol: )

And as the poster above me already pointed out: that part about "peaceful revolution" will probably annoy a lot of people on here. Just so that you're prepared.

Welcome comrade, i feel that i have to point out that Gandhi was a racist and pacifism doesn't really work when it comes to Revolutionary politics.

From personal experience Salvia is fun, marijuana is great, but psychedelics have been awful (from personal experience).

Welcome. Hopefully being here will help you learn more about left-wing politics.


I'm an defender of peace and pacifist movement,my idol is GANDHI who always inspired me. So im seeking that an communist revolution needs to be done by peace. :rolleyes:

As mentioned above, a communist revolution done by peace is near impossible, seeing that the ruling class will do everything to hold on to their power (there's also police, military, ect). They love pacifism. If the working-class remained passive, they can certainly use that to their advantage. It's bourgeois.

And yes, Gandhi was a racist and class-collaborationist.


I'm very connected with the beauty of nature.And i want to keep it that way clean,beautiful,free. So green communism also works for me.

I love nature and beauty as well. True beauty.


I listen to:Psychedelic Rock,jazz,hippie rock.

Hm what else oh yea and im almost 15 years old.

Oh yea my religion: Im an Buddhist,but as many Buddhist i dont believe in existence of god

Just curious, are you into the beat writers at all? Like Kerouac, Burroughs, Ginsberg, Cassady, ect.


Im also interested in Salvia divinorum,also in marijuana-(although i didn't tried it yet),about psychedelic drugs some other time ok :P

I hate Salvia, I've tried it twice and some of the trip was interesting but I didn't really enjoy it. Mairjuana is nice. I used to smoke the hell out of it in high school, but after that, I'd only do it when it was around which wasn't often. I love psychedelics though. LSD, shrooms, and especially DMT is what I'm going to miss due to my sobriety. Eventually, when I feel like I'm ready - I'll trip again.

Look, fresh meat! Hippie straight from the meadows! :thumbup:

I'm also interested in Buddhism but I just don't quite know, maybe the force is weak in me. lol


You might run into trouble liking Ghandi around here.
Some people on this board like far, far worse figures, Ghandi ranks pretty low compared to some ideological idols of the left.

OP, you seem alright but for real fuck Gandhi.


From personal experience Salvia is fun, marijuana is great, but psychedelics have been awful (from personal experience).

That's oddly specific. You've been a vegetarian for one year and precisely 3.6 months?

Anyway, where are you from, out of interest?

In any case, welcome to the forum. I was a moron when I was your age, by the way, so congrats on being inquisitive and whatever at such a young age.

Welcome! Don't worry about any anti-communist views you might have or used to have, I imagine almost all of us started off not knowing anything about it and being brainwashed by propaganda.

As for your pacifism, I think most of us would prefer peaceful revolution but it's not very practical, if the ruling class uses violence against us we will have no choice. And besides, not taking control by force is like asking your slave handler nicely to set you free.

There is also another thing about it which is: Killing or hurting people during a revolution will stop capitalism from causing many, many more deaths in the future. Starvation and lack of healthcare are caused by this system, and people are dying faster than ever.

I smoke weed too though I have stopped lately because of exams. I will be no doubt heavily smoking it during the summer though! :D I'd like to try psychedelics too such as shrooms or LSD but my friends and I are finding it hard to get hold of over here to say the least...
