I am more Anarchist and Leftist than Ghandi and the Dalai Lama

Right you cunts. Who wants a fucking debate.

The Dalai Lama score probably goes to the current 14th Dalai Lama. His predecessors were known to be very cruel.

Being someone rather ignorant about the course of Ghandi's political actions, did British corruption in India contribute to their downfall?

I remember this thing, I forget my results though.

hmmm:
Economic Left/Right: -2.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -0.82

Your F Score is: 3.5

I wasn't aware that India had undergone a downfall.

I was referring to the downfall of British rule in India.

I don't think the indians noticed.

Did the British respond to Ghandi by deploying more troops? How many troops did the British have in India before pulling out for good?

google: india history ghandi empire.

learn.

You are a whining rotter.

:clap:

I'm not surprised that NZ is a hotbet of leftism.

Haha, yeah man, apart from the fact that New Zealand is one of the most open free market economies in the world and conservative right wing parties have a lot of popularity here.

Sarcasm is funny.

There are fewer homosexuals in China because the regeime doesn't teach the people about it.

It's obviously a learned behaviour, right?

During Maoist times, sodomites (the term used in law) can expect 10 good years of forced labour (no pun intended on the governing party of NZ as of this post). Deng stopped persecuting gays for being gay and it wasn't until last year that homosexualism was removed from the list of mental disorders.

Homosexual activism isn't strong in China since not living up to social expectations of things like marriage or parenthood can eventually turn many gays over to therapy. Some Chinese still believe that its a learned behaviour or incorrect practice like TMS. I am doubtful that there is open discrimination against gays there, since gay men don't dress distinctively or act incredibly effeminate during working hours.

Chiang, few gay people anywhere can be distinguished reliably by the stereotypes you've put forward. I'm assuming you meant that this behaviour doesn't occur in Chinese workplaces, which makes sense given that it's the perennial media stereotype for what used to be classed a mental disorder there.

Concluding there is no open anti-gay discrimination in China because most people are still too scared to come out publicly doesn't make a lot of sense either.

some gays actually know that it's not right being gay due to their obligations to family and society.

Being gay is someone else's unfortunate businesses. Most people care more about making living and saving their money for important things.

So why isn't it possible to meet your obligations to society and family whilst not living a life of repressed inner shame?

This would be the point where I ask if you object to homosexuality itself.

Well, most people want to continue their family name and have biological children some day. Gays can't do that. I continue to view homosexuality (and other sexual perversions) as immoral.

Here's a Chinese Dilbert (office) situation involving a gay guy:

Person A: "Dude, I think Mr. Chen in the cubical next to yours is a 'tongzhi*'."

Person B: "Hey, at least he won't steal my girlfriend!"


*Literally meaning "comrade" (a slang term for a gay person).

I'd heard that "tongzhi" had developed that hilarious double meaning. I guess we'll have to agree to disagree on homosexuality itself - I'm not gay myself, but suffice to say I completely deplore your stance on the whole issue.

Why don't you tell the 'comrades'? LOL!

It's sad when a good joke is beaten to death with a premature LOL.

LOL is a my habit when it comes to posting funny stuff because I've laugh at at before I typed it up.
