Because Communists weren't Communists.
The anarchists emphasised worker control over production and government, while the commies were into centralised power in the hands of the Communist party.
Yes, I agree. Communism, at the outset, was a form of anarchism. It had to be, because it was very different to the established form of government.
That speech shat me to the core if it's the one where he called anyone who disagreed with his ETS, a 'climate change skeptic' that you are reffering too.
Well I dunno what speech you're referring to. But yes, anything coming from the ALP or the Greens over the last 2 years or so. Simple childish name-calling. No-one should be ashamed for believing that climate change doesn't exist. And the very fact that those who defend climate change do so with such evangelism basically proves them wrong.
