Let me put it to you like this: If a socialist or a communist told me that the sky really is blue, I'd still go outside and check, just to be sure.

I would not. Socialists or communists are perfectly capable of speaking truth as well as people from the right are capable of telling the lies.

The best way to discern the truth is to listen to the all sides instead of believing blindly YOUR party line. You might become similar to a Communist if you do not think on your own.

Simone Weil (French woman philosopher) said - "The Truth is a refugee from the camp of winners".

But I don't have or belong to a "party." Therefore, the charge of "believing blindly" is dismissed with prejudice. I'm a conservative free-agent.

One more thing, I absolutely loathe communists and socialists with a passion that is indescribable. Since I admitted this, it shouldn't be a stretch to see my logic in not listening to a thing they have to say.

What's wrong with being a communist? According to you, they are an honest bunch.
