That begs the question, who of us here (the members of the Hive) are actually communist in ideology in real life?

I know (WELL, im Preaty sure) none of you are commies in real life. That is why I insult the hive so much. If any of you were actually commies, I would (unhappily) tone down the harshness of my posts.

I consider myself neither capitalist or marxist. I am a follower of the economic theories of George Bataille, whose works "The Theory of Religion" and "The Accursed Share" form the core of the "Copernican Project" to overthrow all existing economic, religious and political thought.

We're ambitious.

Cool quote from TToR: "The warrior's nobility is like a prostitute's smile, the truth of which is self-interest."

"Self-interest", sounds awfully like Ayn Rand...

I lean more toward Social-Democratic. True communists are violent by nature and opt for the radical change....I'm more progressive in nature.

I have to say, the comic by Gnool was probably my favorite.

Much as I hate Ayn Rand, and a lot of what she's written is wrong, there is quite a bit you can gain from reading some of her books. If you ignore much of the politicised crap, she does have a *few* good points.
