Name calling is not my stong point.
The problem with change towards other cultures, is mainly that it inherrantly involves an automatic marginalization of the 'non them'.
Culture involves 'language' and customs and attitudes to many things. Example. the chinese see nothing wrong with utilizing rare and endangered animals as 'exotic food' and medicine. When in Malaysia some time back my host took me to a 'high priced' resturant which served only such "cussine" I saw some beautiful spotted jungle cats in cages waiting to be slaughtered for some businessmans delight.
Made me sick !
Have you ever had concreting done Molly ? did u have an Italian concreter ? If so, did you notice that all the sub contractors, the driver, the bobcat guy, were all Italian also ? Its not universally the case but it IS a very noticable thing. Discrimination based on race/ethnic origin is very real in the business world.
Communism does not ask 'can we succeed in a prosperous society', rather its says "What must we do, to bring about the proletarian revolution NO MATTER WHAT the exisiting society is like".?
Have a read of the Socialist sites online for further info.
You would be possibly surprised at some of the ways communism has sought to bring about social instability in order to capitalize on it for their own purposes. Don't you remember the author who wrote about that very thing, (which he personally experienced) the bombing in Hong Kong in this forum ?
Well there u go, I'm at the end of this post and not one 'name' :) ur home free.
