greetings :)

[natacha]

hello! I'm Natacha, I'm 17 and a student from London (anyone else from these parts? it's getting colder isn't it, and it's only just turned august), and I study photography, sociology, psychology and english lit.
I suppose, as an only child, people have always facinated me, and I've always loved to watch them. I started becoming interested in politics I suppose around 9/11 listening to all the conspiracy theories my mums friends chatted on about quietly, but I even remember being interested about princess diana's death and the politics behind that when I was about 7. I see politics as people watching on a macro scale. I'd say I'm a democratic socialist, sometimes slightly hostile (but probably just ignorant) towards communism because of history, but who can believe history books on the other hand? I certainly can't.
I'm still learning, and I like to talk about such things, so anyone wishing to contact me - feel free.
And my myspace (yes, I know, rupert murdock etc etc) is here (http://www.myspace.com/natacha_).

Welcome, may your stay be long and informative

BTW: Hope u realize that communism isn't evil, the fact is that some evil men have abused it, and now everyone believes communism is inherently evil
Look around in the Learning section and you'll see communism for what it really is
Cheers :)

Well, a lot of people are. We are working against those very misconceptions here on this board.

Anyways, welcome. :)

And yeah, there are several members here from London.

Hi there, about disliking communism, why not learn a bit about anarchism?
It's communism with the evil bits left out :D

EDIT: the music on your myspace thing is nice and soothing.

[natacha]

i've learnt a lot here already, it's a really great forum. xo

[RedAnarchist]

Re-welcome:)

What things have changed?

[natacha]

oh I didnt realise it would go to the top of the list! ah thanks for the welcome back :)
what has changed, I am not as scared of history haha, I'm doing a degree in development studies and I'm working with Burmese trade unions next year for a year an a half, I've lived with the KNLA guerilla group over the summer in Thailand and I think I know what I want to do at last.
I bet you must meet a lot of people on here who change their views and change yours? it must be an interesting forum so i'm going to stick around for sure :)
