Wow, how nice. Advocating mass murder because you dislike someone's economic theory. Y'know the whole "purge the communists" thing had its heyday back in the 30's somewhere in Northern Europe. I forget how that turned out, anyone? Little help, refresh my memory?

i think anarchistic communism is actually quite the equitable system and wouldn't really turn a country into a hellhole

anarchism is "no leaders" not "no laws"

The irony of someone from a communist background, who uses Stalin et al as a reason for her hatred of communism... who then advocates mass murder of people for their political philosophy... That's just outstanding, really
Are we going to call it a gulag?
I hate communism because of the way it has destroyed country's in the past.

Except Communism has never actually been attempted on a national scale anywhere, except in a highly corrupted form based on Lenin and Stalin. Thus any and all examples you bring forth are based on the philosophies of these two men.
