That stuff is very basic, but you North Americans have issues with the terms. You generally haven't got a clue about the most basic of definitions. A socialist is not a Communist. If you want to call someone a Communist then cool as long as it is true.

They are one in the same in my mind, however, you're free to post the differences rather than complain that there are differences but we (North Americans) just don't see them.

Absolutely, I learned diddly squat from studying politics. I have had to recondition myself completely and at this stage I have a far better understanding of the realities of the Western political, media, business and economic systems. You look at the average American and have to feel a bit sorry for them really. The average person studying humanities is likewise someone to feel a bit sorry for. They don't know any better. Obvious products of the education/propaganda system that is thrown at them daily. A lot of very awake people out there too, but they are still a minority. Yes, they really hate you for your freedoms Mr. I haven't got a clue about globalisation and contemporary slavery.
