RE:RE:Communists have no respect for democracy
by Jai Max on Jul 24, 2008 08:08 AM

Who said it is easy to nurture and preserve democratic traditions. It is indeed a tougher task. Of course communist dictatorship are easier to establish than democracies. The real problem is any kind of dictatorship, be it monarchical or cadre based all lead to same disorders and disasters. Why have so many countries in the world ultimately rejected communism? Is it not the dogma of communism to believe that one day the whole world would come under communist rule? How do you explain country after country saying good bye to communism? Communism is surviving in China because communism in that country is reduced to a mechanism for hanging on to power. It is more capitalistic and dictatorial than many other democratic countries. Do not fall a prey to the easy way out that communism propounds. Democracies are tougher to establish and sustain. But the most important point is that every effort to promote democracy is worth far more than anything done to prop up communism
