   my Native forests, salmon    
   that they will be forced into extinction by GE trees and GM salmon. Let's   
   battle the windmill of communism or Muslim terrorists and ignore real problems   
   and the real battlefield. Then we'll all be extinct. Problem solved.   
      
      
   Yep, one could call it a "knee-jerk reaction", but it's no different than the   
   knee-jerk reaction that occurs whenever someone says anything negative about   
   Communism. But, hey, if you think that your own individuality or personal   
   dreams mean nothing, and    
   that your soul isn't yours, and that no one has a right to their own special   
   relationship with spiritual reality, then yes, i guess Communism is for you.   
   If you think indigenous traditions and lifestyles are flourishing in Communist   
   nations, you should    
   probably look again. Communism should supposedly be self-sustaining, but is   
   it? No, it's the ultimate eater of individual souls who are all forced to the   
   bottom of the food chain where they can share droppings from the overlord's   
   table equally.    
      
   No matter how many times you insert a 'K' into America or Capitalism to   
   insinuate that it's all based on KKK ideology, it doesn't magically turn   
   Communism into a figment of someone's imagination. I know survivors of   
   Communism who would take offense by    
   the suggestion that responding to it as a real thing is like chasing   
   windmills. And now you're saying that Muslim terrorists fit into that category   
   as well?   
      
   Yes, Monica, i guess you could say i have a knee-jerk reaction to Communism.   
   I'm going to keep on having it, and there's nothing wrong, immoral, or   
   criminal about that. Also, i don't have an itch for violence, and can't   
   support hate directed toward any    
   one race of people, irregardless of how rage can give birth to hate. Hate is   
   an open door to the dark side, but i think you might already know that.    
      
   You can continue to post passive-aggressively to avoid responding directly,   
   but it doesn't change anything. I love and respect Native American people, but   
   i have a certain level of suspicion toward activist 'leaders' who don't seem   
   the least bit    
   threatened by Communist or terrorist ideology. It could only mean that   
   indigenous beliefs and spiritual practices are being sold out to a one-world   
   'belief system' in exchange for having more control over the ecosystem. I feel   
   that it's entirely possible    
   that *some* of the activist leaders are not being truly forthcoming with the   
   people they're claiming to represent. If you can convince me that Communism   
   would have no negative effect on Native Americans, then i will consider it a   
   "non-issue" on alt.   
   native.    
      
   Otherwise, love-based knee-jerk reactions, absolutely.
