    I can't believe you're defending Communism with its 20th century history
    of genocide across the globe.

    Dubious history from liberal intellectuals with an agenda. As Pirsig
    points out: "Primitive tribes such as the American Indians have no record
    of sweetness and cooperation with other tribes. They ambushed them,
    tortured them, dashed their children's brains out on rocks." (Lila, 24) In
    other words, the killed each other off long before we arrived on the
    scene. Some Indian groups are more populous today than in 1492.
