Today this kid at school started to attack me about communism although i did defend my self well and he started to get pissed off that i had an answer for every attack he layed down on me but at the end he was saying he was right and everyone just looked at him and thought he one and that i didnt know what i was going on about i was just tlaking shit. So is there any tips that we can all use wehn this comes up. Stuff like "look what happened to russia" "why should a man who works 5 hours get payed the smae as some one who works 12" etc etc you get the story the usually crap attacks.

I have a very simple if rather effective solution-
Don't debate with people like him. they're not looking for debate, they're looking for either a fight or to make you look stupid or foolish.
Only debate with people who are looking for a genuine debate (There are some out there)
And those sympathetic, unbiased or knowledgable about communism.

If you get into a debate with someone 'for real' and they haven't read the Communist Manifesto, get them to.
They will have a lot more questions, and they won't be along the lines of 'well look at russia, blah blah blah,'

ANother thing you could do is to point out how much WORSE Russia is under capitalism ;)
