President Ho Chi Minh’s 115th birthday

President HO CHI MINH will live forever with our mountains and rivers, and his name and image will be ever more deeply engraved in the heart and mind of each Vietnamese!

President Ho Chi Minh - a man, a nation, an age and a cause

[Ho Chi Minh - a historic encounter](http://www.dangcongsan.vn/details_e.asp?topic=99&subtopic=205&id=BT1950535980)

“There cannot be a revolutionary movement without a revolutionary theory”. These words by Lenin are, in essence, a summing-up of the history of revolutionary movements, especially in recent limes with the guidance of Marxist-Leninist doctrine.

[Ho Chi Minh - his cause](http://www.dangcongsan.vn/details_e.asp?topic=99&subtopic=205&id=BT1950536009)

Ho Chi Minh’s system of theoretical viewpoints have pervaded the masses and become revolutionary practice in Vietnam over the past sixty years. These are decades of revolutionary upsurge in Vietnam and in the world.

[Ho Chi Minh - the man](http://www.dangcongsan.vn/details_e.asp?topic=99&subtopic=205&id=BT1950536039)

In order to understand Ho Chi Minh’s work, let us make our acquaintance with Ho Chi Minh the man I had the opportunity to live near for many years, through many stages of the Vietnamese revolution, from the day of the training class preparing for the founding of the Party in Canton to those last days before he passed away.

[Ho Chi Minh lives forever in our cause](http://www.dangcongsan.vn/details_e.asp?topic=99&subtopic=205&id=BT1950536083)

Durinng the sad days of parting for ever with Ho Chi Minh, the boundless sorrow and deeply-held convictions of the whole Party and people were crystallised in the phrase : “Ho Chi Minh lives for ever in our cause”.

What I said was a line from Full Metal Jacket. It’s a cadence that they yell while running. Also, Full Metal Jacket is a lot easier tog et and find than your movie. Besides, I probably wouldn’t get what was going on. Full Metal Jacket is classic in America, you should see it even without this topic.

Communists have no sense of humor. With the help of INTERNET ™ I went in search of a joke you might like. Prepare!

> A drunk man is at one of Havana’s main street corners shouting: “Castro, sonofabitch!,” “Castro, murderer!,” “Castro, because of you I’m dying of hunger!,” “Castro, you are a curse to the Cuban people!” A policewoman arrives to the scene and beats the hell out of him. The drunk guy retorts: “Why are you beating me? There are many people in Cuba named Castro!” The policewoman responds: “Yes, but with those characteristics there is only one!”

Thank you, that is the response I was going for when I posted it. It wasn’t meant to upset anyone.

Just curious, why are so many kids ga-ga for communism these days? Of the governments that were communist, only a handful have succeeded, and most only with help from capitalist governments. I mean, is it a “rebelling against authority” thing, or do people really think that another communist government would work better than those in the past? Or are they just mad at other world governments?

It’s because capitalism is the devil! Seriously though, I have no idea, it’s something that I was wondering too.

This is almost as annoying as those stupid nazi sympathizers out there who decide to make a ruckus now and then just to show they’re not dead yet… \>.\> For heavens’ sake, communism was a monstrosity, and the governments that claimed to be communist were as bad as any fascist dictatorship. In my book, the only difference between fascism and communism is who holds the power. In the first, it’s the state and the corporations, while it the second the state hogs everything. It’s all the same poison. Police states, oppression, massive brainwash with pseudo-nationalistic propaganda, and let’s not forget paranoia and blaming any opposition (real or ficticious) for the government’s incompetence and brutality.

Manus, no offense, but take a chill pill. You’re taking this WAY too seriously. 😛 Also in terms of how governments function, facism and communism are extremely different even though they’re both dictatorships. Facism defends property and the right to own private land/businesses and is perfect for people who fear communist takeovers (such were the cases for Nazi Germany and Facist Italy), while communism favors the working class because nobody owns private land and all business are run by the government.

We still need someone to change his name to NATO though.

Communism doesn’t require a dictatorship. In fact the dictatorships that call themselves communist aren’t really at all what the 19th century communists had in mind when they thought up communism, since the basis for it was the idea that people should not be able to exploit other people; capitalism is viewed negatively because capital is a mechanism through which the rich exploit the labor of the poor (and by doing so increase their own wealth).

Yeah, I was thinking of Russian communism when I said that, it became distinctly separate from regular Communism. (Russian Communism is the system Castro uses in Cuba)
