    Possibly, but you're the one calling a man a unicorn because he's got a cone taped to his head.

    Nobody here is an apologist since Communism has never actually done anything.

    Argue, then, consistently, against everything we've said to counter your ridiculous argument.

    What you're saying is that, according to the above argument, zebras now commit murder and adultery regularly.

    He pointed out a logical fallacy in your argument. Attempting to make an analogy out of an invalid argument doesn't address anything he has said.

    That's low. For too long have my unicorn brethren suffered to the ignorance of your kin.
    For far too long have we been called "Crazy lunitics with cones strapped to their forheads".
    For far too long! But no more.

    I don't have to sit and listen to this.

    And I pointed out that his logical fallacy does not match out argument, and attached a more accurate analogy to it.

    I don't know what Communism is 'cos I was brought up and indocrinated in the 1980's :P

    Seriously, the Soviet Union was no more communist than the 'West' is democratic... do capitalism and democracy sit hand in hand?

    It matches perfectly, Communists, like religious apologists, never fail to fall back on the DEY NOT REEL COMMUNISTS skit, which is exactly what the No True Scotsman Fallacy is.

    But hey, if you want to be illogical, go ahead, it goes hand in hand with your ideology.

    He never said "they are no real communists" he said "they simply are no communists" the real makes the big difference here...

    But... The entire scotsman fallacy depends on the fact that the culprits are 100% certainly scotsmen, since they were born in Scotland.

    How do you prove that someone is a communist? By examining his or her ideologies and actions. If they do not match, then they are not a communist.

    You can't say "But he's a communist despite the fact that he does things no communist would do", because that is what defines a communist in the first place.

    Except it makes no difference, it's still the same fallacy.

    Oh wow...Communists are even more adamant in their logical inconsistency than religious fanatics?
