The French Revolution (1789–1799)
I'm talking about France from 1789 to 1795, fool.
I'm talking about the radicals that took down the monarchy and instituted commune rule preceding the Reign of Terror.
The Reign of Terror (5 September 1793 – 28 July 1794)
Geee. A 4 year government. What a shining example of communism at work.
Historical examples vary, but anarchy is definitely not a result. With France, a revolution that at first resulted in anarchy quickly turned statist, quite the opposite.

The French revolution was against the monarchy. Not a communist party.
I never said the commune brought statism (also never said communism) in entirety over France. The Paris Commune merely was responsible for the Storming of the Bastille and much radical activity until 1795.
Capitalism and Communism are both as bad as each other. They are both systems where a select few people at the top end up with all the money. Capitalism is only slightly fairer.

You just decided to spit out historical fact #87,286. Leaving my to assume you where implying something about the subject at hand?Here is an example...Quote from: Vltava on February 16, 2008, 01:28:51 amHistorical examples vary, but anarchy is definitely not a result.

At the Coke machine down the street, I kicked it and a Diet Coke came out, which is not Cherry Coke."Isn't that implying that your likely get a Diet Coke out of the Coke machine? To bad we are talking about Cherry Coke, and not kicking Coke machines!(Here is a key, just in case your confused)Coke Machines = CountriesCherry Coke = Communismkicked = AnarchyDiet Coke = Statism
Did you even read what I said? I said that the lawlessness (anarchy) was caused by communism.
You call giving an example of something barely related to communism in an entirely different country AND time period "disproving?"

What country did you mention in the first place?Communism does not lead to anarchy, fool.
you mention the french revolution, which happened way before the idea of communism existed. The result of the resolution was socialist at best. The economy was barely changed (still horrible, but not communist) the only thing that was remotely communist about it was that the nobility was overthrown (which is not unique to communism)
It is usually considered a branch of the broader socialist movement that draws on the various political and intellectual movements that trace their origins back to the work of theorists of the Industrial Revolution and the French Revolution.
8. the Commune. Also called Commune of Paris, Paris Commune. a. a revolutionary committee that took the place of the municipality of Paris in the revolution of 1789, usurped the authority of the state, and was suppressed by the National Convention in 1794. b. a socialistic government of Paris from March 18 to May 27, 1871.

It was quite statist; everyone had to be "equal" and addressed each other as "citizen". There was no private property. Do you even know what a commune is?
