No, that works as well.
Problem is you!
Either that or there's a military takeover in Brazil and they're hunting all the intellectuals down

Oh, sh-, there are no mountains here!!!
(Strangely enough, it wasn't until recently that the Philosophy course in my university was re-opened... and there are no Marxists)

Got jungle though, go live with the indians for a bit
Not surprising about the Marxists, there was a bit of a kerfuffle over marxism being in a higher school certificate recently in Australia because it was a failed/flawed political system.
Thought it was kind of idiotic myself as it's still a valid lesson if nothing else... and from this point on I'm sort of stretching my knowledge on politics so I'll shut up. Well, know enough to get the gist that I'd probably be lined up against the wall and shot for being a capitalist pig

Actually, I'm really far from the jungle also. I live in a savannah, and it looks like this...
Although it covers a vast area, but not a really good place to hide

Hehe, in spite of being very capitalist myself, I admit Marx's materialist ideas are quite nice, from what I've read.

Looks a lot like parts of South Africa, southern Zimbabwe in spots actually.
Like a lot of the libertarian ideas that are floating around, the marxism and to some degree globalisation things as well, they often have a decent basis for making the world a better place.
Sadly they're usually thought up by people who mean well and end up in the hands of someone you really don't want implementing them.

Yes, but you miss out on governments changing ever couple of years/months and having to carry around a grotty old M16 as a handbag in an armoured 4wd.
'tis mostly awful.
Giraffes aren't though, they're the most sweet natured, gentle creatures ever
