Somehow this got into a political argument? Please keep the talk in the New Scratchers forum about, well, welcoming New Scratchers.

The Scratch Forums are not a place for political debate. Take that talk elsewhere, and stay on topic.

Not every communistic leader is a racist.  |||||||||||
Communism is just a political structure and view.

The idea of communism actually makes a lot of sense but when it is executed it doesn't always end up so well.

No, communism isn't racism.

Please remember that the New Scratchers forum is for welcoming and helping new members of our community.  It's not for political debate.  If we have to remind people again, this topic will be closed.

Hi, TheCommunist!

Ceramics: rather than believe your mom or Wikipedia about things like politics, you could try using http://kids.britannica.com as it gives simple and accurate definitions of things like political terms. 

Let's move away from politics. We don't want this to get closed 

Hi! Welcome to Scratch.

Having people argue in your introduction topic is kind of what you get for having a name like that, no offense

It wouldn't have happened if everybody even knew what it meant! I mean someone thought that Communism was the same thing as Racism!

Well you shouldn't assume that a website that has users as young as 5 will have everyone knowing the meaning of communism

Don't start another argument, andres-vander.  Anyway, welcome to scratch!  P.S. I know communism is not racistness. (or whatever)

What argument would I be starting? (other than this one right now)
Accusing people of starting arguments is just as bad as actually arguing. Especially when the person you accused wasn't arguing in the first place. What I was talking about was more of a real introduction to scratch, where users are young and seldom understand you

Alright, that's enough. this thread is for welcoming The Communist, not harrassing him/her about their username. If you find that name to be upsetting or inflammatory, then don't say anything. Andres-Vander, your comment had potential to start an argument, that's all.

This topic seems to be overly disruptive - I'm closing it.
