    The majority of us probably obsessed over things like zombies and angry mobs attacking our house when we were younger.

    I was afraid of gypsies, but that's just because I was raised to think they were the boogeyman... god I hate Romania...

    Nope, there's always gonna be violence. Even if you somehow manage to come up with a utopian system where everything is perfectly set so that people have no need or want to be violent - it won't last forever. That system ever being produced is damned near impossible however.

    Yep, it's pretty much the same situation as with black people in the US, only worse.
    They used to be slaves, they were liberated in the mid 19th century and they continue to be marginalized and mistreated to this day.

    It's pretty much embedded in Romanian culture to hate gypsies. That and Hungarians even though they don't live in most parts of the country and they are generally cool people compared to most Romanians. Then there's the occasional jew hating even though most of them fled to Israel, US and Canada after the holocaust and there's barely any of them left (fun fact: Romania was the second biggest contributor to the holocaust after Nazi Germany)

    Did Marx ever say Communism is a utopia? Marx theorized this would be the last stage of societal development, atleast in the form we know, because classes would cease to exist, and thus class struggle would be ended.
