Talk:Communist symbolism

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This needs work, and should be as detailed as Anarchist symbolism--Che y Marijuana 01:06, Dec 10, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Pol Pot

The Pol Pot regime is not considered communist and should not be listed under this article. I personally will not tolerate anti-communism by use of non-neutral tone and vocabulary. -- unsigned comment by TwelveStones 02:38, 29 April 2006

Whatever, dude -- I'm not sure that I really care all that much about the more abstruse and esoteric classifications of your own particular political theology, but no matter what these may happen to be, the state emblem of "Democratic Kampuchea" is still a prime example of the more aesthetically negative side of classsic Communist symbolism (have you ever actually seen it??). If you don't like my wording, then try to come up with better wording, but don't delete relevant information. AnonMoos 13:25, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

NO. The Democratic Kampuchea was not communist. It would be the same as classifying a Buddhist symbol under Christian symbolism. I am removing it, and if you do not stop spreading ideological messages I will report this to a moderator. TwelveStones 15:09, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

Dude, you're the one who is acting on his personal political theology, and is DELETING RELEVANT INFORMATION. AnonMoos 15:34, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

I've stated this before. The Democratic Kampuchea is neither considered a socialist state nor a communist movement. It does not belong in this entry. Now as to 'political theology' I am first and foremost here to remove anti-communism, but I support a netural-tone wikipedia. TwelveStones

Dude, how many times do I have to tell you that your personal political theology has no relevance to Wikipedia. Trotsky said that Stalin wasn't a "true" communist, Stalin said that Trotsky wasn't a "true" communist, and you've chosen to personally excommunicate the Khmer Rouge from what you consider to be "true" communism. Unfortunately, that has absolutely no relevance whatsoever to Wikipedia. Meanwhile, I would appreciate it if you would stop deleting factual information. AnonMoos 21:04, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

Again, I will make an analogy. You wouldn't put Gnostic symbols in an article devoted to Christian symbolism. If the state isignia of the Democratic Kampuchea were to be included in this article, it would need to go under 'Other communist symbols'. TwelveStones

I really have no interest in your opinions as to whether Pol Pot was a "true" communist, according to your personal political ideology. AnonMoos 16:54, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

But you see, there's this thing called the truth. And what do you know, some opinions can be true! It's amazing, I know. If we were to take a textbook definition of Marxism : class struggle leading to the rise of a worker's state, then we could easily see that Khmer Rouge was not a Marxist movement and would not fall under 'communist symbolism' except perhaps under other communist symbols. TwelveStones

You've demonstrated absolutely nothing other than your personal political theology, and your particular individual conclusions about whom you (from your idiosyncratic point of view) choose to regard as being a "true" communicate, or choose to excommunicate from "true" communism -- "true" being relative to your personal opinions, of course. Yawn. AnonMoos 07:24, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

If we don't define what 'communism' is first, we can't really have a communist symbolism entry now can we? TwelveStones

You haven't made the slightest attempt to "define" it, but have merely displayed your own personal political ideology. AnonMoos 19:28, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
