please do not take this the wrong way . but i always see talk of revolution and overthrowing the capatilist regime and accusing other people of being " coffee shop revolutionarys " on this board. but i do not know if anyone on here actually does anything . please tell me how involved you are with your causes and such . i wont lie as for me i am just a moderate trying to become knoweldgable about communism / socialism so i can become involved later once i can figure otu what i personally believe in

you gotta realize that many people here are very involved
I am part of the Young Communist Leage of the USA, I donate money and give support to the organizations i am a part of
you gotta realize that a majority of the people here live in the US and Britain, so their communist activities are limited
You know how many times I have tried to give rise to Leftie clubs in school and around the community, but have been denied the right to do that by authorities? too many times

so youre a communist then? what made you decide to move to communism instead of socialism?

Im not a communist in the traditional sense, hence my name, liberal.
I believe in the structure and workings of communism, but if something wasnt working correctly, it must be changed immediately, for the good of society, without taking a capitalistic stance
whereas other traditional communists would rather have the problems work themselves out, which, would most likely be a long, greuling process
i also dont believe in totalitarianism, whereas I would allow a communist republic, where many socialist, communist, and all other left wing parties that people could vote on
its unorthodox, I know, but to me it makes the most sense

I've thought about trying to establish a Leftist club in school or something, but I don't think I could get anyone to sponsor that. Even if I did, I don't think we'd be allowed to do much, plus, I'm the only Comrade I know personally, and I'm not a good leader.

But what I have done is put commie themed flyers up, and boycott flyers up, stuff like that, nothing super active I'll admit.

Slow down there fella..

Things are gonna have to get a heck of a lot worse than this before any revolution...

First.. Where do you stand on the issues? Is your loyalty to the working class?

Its not just communists looking for revolution..

[dirtyd6969]

hell yeah im definantly down for the workign class.

i think most people hjere do SOMETHING, but a lot of it is misguided and down to lack of knowledge (eg 2 years ago my forming of a youth group which got 50 members, but really, what was needed was an organisations inpregnated within the masses, not on the fringes like my group www.yfrc.org.uk)

Mike, i think a leftist club which simply DISCUSSED would be brilliant. then you can use your marxist analysis to solve problems at school. eg high prices within school and form a student union.

i personally am part of the socialist appeal group www.socialist.net and my personal contribution is to work for them and donate money and hold meetings etc.
