Communism cannot die until we transcend it, and as we have not even bettered capitalism yet, i can't see that happening for a a long time.

Ahh I hate the way communism has been so wrongly portrayed and described over the years. It means I have to think twice every time I am about to say I'm a communist, and I usually just say I'm a socialist to avoid an earful from an ignorant.

Another name for communism. Utopianism? But that of course makes people think you've simply got your head in the clouds. Revolutionary Socialism? The revolutionary bit will scare people away. Humanitarian Socialism? Hmm, maybe?


Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
