And why are you saying "I wouldn't be ANY surprised" what kind of funny English is that? Several times you have written like a non-native speaker of English. What's up with that? Are you American as everyone assumes, or some other nationality?

Oh no! Did I just screw up the whole thing revealing myself? I'm a bad robot, I let down my creator!

It seems to me, Hanna, that in your childhood some commies seriously affected your view on many things. Do you know who else thinks of a person whose opinion is different as a bot, and equates "I assume" to "everyone assumes"?

Ok I think this comment proves that you are "probably" not a bot... we shall see

No "commies" affected my views in my childhood, the only thing that's different was that I wasn't under the influence of quite as much junk culture and conservative indoctrination as the average American, so therefore I developed the ability to view other cultures and countries from a neutral perspective instead of labelling them according to the latest "axis of evil" list.

And as an adult who's been truly ensnared in capitalism, in one of its global hubs for the last 10 years, I am am just letting off some steam by thinking of what a good world we would have if some of the ideals of socialism could be implemented. That is not exactly extreme, half of Europe has the same opinion. Being AGAINST imperalism and exploitation doesn't automatically make a person a "commie" there are many nuances on that scale.
