Well?
I can totally see myself standing up for something and then everything going terribly wrong. I remember once, I was reading about a bunch of hippies in Ohio protesting Vietnam or something and a bunch of them got shot and killed by the National Guard.
Well?
In the age of terrorism I think its more likely that you'd wind up dying for someone else's two bit cause, unless the capitalist dirt bags get their way, then we'll all wind up dying because their sums dont add up. Still, it'll be our fault, their system is blameless or so they're oft prepared to spend a lot of time telling people.
you're the first socialist I've met who seems to understand this
Over my dead body.Well?

I'm not sure you've met a lot of socialists Elfboy, this is less to do with being a socialist and more to do with being someone who grew up in northern ireland before the peace process and with the continued prescence of paramilitaries and their causes.
interesting, you seem to be interested in the abuse of power. may I ask what in a socialist society would prevent governmental abuse of power when they are able to amass such large amounts of money?
The government is made of people with a vested interest in their society
only so long as the people are able to control the government and not the other way around. do you honestly think most politicians go into politics because they want to serve humanity?
