Its offical people: if you have a communist freind, you need help.

3 Ways to Be Okay with Having a Communist Friend - wikiHow

Its hard to know whether to laugh at this as well intentioned liberal pity, or take it as a reflection that we are a socially awkward minority group that people just don't want to talk to. Its like we caught something and everyone gets nervous that they may get infected and become a social outcast too. "You've got communism? How aweful. I'm so sorry, are you seeing a doctor about it? Are you taking the proper medication?"

The link below makes light of it pretty well.

Anyway, I thought this was worth a share Comrades. If it promotes a little understanding thats ok I guess. :D

I lost it at "Perhaps Communism will become the new Buddhism, an exotic worldview that white liberals can readily consume with no ideological commitment. Then Zizek can write essays about “coffee without caffeine” and “Communism without class struggle” and we’ll all rejoice about the humorous anecdotes."

Glad I could spread a little cheer. :D

I live in a veritable Uber Left wing wacko paradise and it doesn't bother me at all when folks begin foaming at the mouth over whatever is outraging their brains on a given day. I just smile and reach for my roll of duct tape....

1. Never let them babysit... :forkknife:

"Hey kids, We won't let them play cowboys and indians. Thats imperialist propaganda. But we have some nice uniforms for a game of hide and seek as good practice to find enemies of the people."

"remember kids- the family is a fascist institution. Wage a class struggle against your parents. Revolution begins at home!"

So yeah... Excellent advice @Augustus ;)
