I only replied with a snarky tone because you started the thread with snark in the title.
Guess it must be that they feel comfortable sharing their views here unlike in real life. I’m all for it, if that’s the case. People should be able to express themselves.
Sorry if I came across that way my friend.
I am a neutral observer and was just surprised. Wish you all the best in your endeavours. Keep well.
I wonder if it’s calling communists ‘commies’ that some may take offense to.
To my ear, this is sort of a slur in that I’ve only really ever heard it when some army guy is shouting ‘god damn commies’ or the like.
Just a disclaimer, I don’t have particularly strong feelings for either a communist or capatalist structure. I think shitty people tend to gather power so most of us are just taken advantage of in either scenario.
I am sorry if my title was perceived in that manner. My first language is not English, therefore I have some difficulty expressing my thoughts at times.
Some of my students are communists and have referred to themselves as “commies”. I was simply under the impression that this is a colloquium. Nonetheless, I thank you for your advice and trust that you keep well.
