Any Communists Here?

Postby Lunatic Insane Nuts With Guns » Fri Feb 01, 2013 1:44 pm

I am not a Communists myself, but I would become one if it would help the poor and disabled out. I am all for making the rich poo, taxing them at 100% and despoiling them of their goods. I haver not the slightest concern for them, just as they have not the slightest concern for me.
Any ways, are any of you Communist Party or organization? What is the Communist parties position on disabled people?

You'd think they'd be as extinct as the velociraptor by now (given their history for genocide and oppression they're certainly a lot more violent than a velociraptor; communists make American slave-owners look like saints), but unfortunately they still exist, despite the systems numerous shortcomings and failures.

You are not just wrong; you are recursively wrong. The wrongness of every possible iteration of any of your arguments is self-similar with the wrongness of your entire worldview.

...you want to tax "the rich" of 100% of their income?
Are you quite mad?
How'd you like it if you started your own business, and just when you became successful, you crossed that bracket into "rich", lost ALL your money, had your business die, and subequently starved to death?

I look at the amount of Communist regions and their total membership vs the amount of Conservative regions and their total membership.

I used to be Pro-communism, but I decided Socialism was a much more moderate view that better suited my honest opinions on the functions of the government and society. Although, I do still hold quite strong leftist views, such as firm regulation of businesses, for numerous reasons.

Yes , I am a communist.
Here is a communist organization: http://www.marxist.com/
The website is for the International Marxist Tendency.

disabled people: I doubt that there is a clear-cut position on disabled people in any political party (except the loony right ones who say shoot them, but I don't think that's what you are looking for), but rather a collection of positions that would affect disabled people in various ways if put into practice. For example, free nationalized healthcare is advocated by the vast majority of socialists and communists, including myself, this is clearly somthing that would benfit disabled people (provided they are in a country that this does not already exist in).
Political Compass: Economic Left/Right: -10.00 Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -10
"Those who do not move, do not notice their chains. "
-Rosa Luxemburg
"In place of bourgeois society with all of it's classes and class antagonisms, we shall have an association, one in which the free development of each is the condition for the free development of all" -Karl Marx
There is no such thing as rational self interest; pure reason leads to the greatest good for the greatest number.

No, it's called not understanding why you were a communist in the first place, and not understanding what it was you were advocating, so you can "grow up", join the larger world, and then make caricatures about communists that, if you weren't coked out of your mind the entire time and paying attention while you were a "communist", you would immediately know were false.

There's nothing mature about it.
