    If we (communists) all united in our country italy for example. we would get a majoraty vote, asopposed to small % of the votes spread between a number of partys. if we unite we could start a democratic revoulution.

    That denies the point of a democratic revoulution. Not a bad idea tho

    I do not advocate a democratic revolution, I advocate a proletarian revolution. and many threads have come just like this one. we know that we need to be united, we are doing what we can now, the revolution cant happen over night.

    Wouldn't voting in one country require one to be a citizen of that country too? Besides, if that was the case, why not choose a smaller country with a lower population?

    And even if the vote went trough, and we did get a majority vote - then what? Declare on television that we will abolish capitalism? Other countries would send in troops to "prevent the anarchy that is going on there".

    And even if we turn the country into a trulu democratic socialist state, then we would end up like DPRK and Cuba - no one will talk to us, but at the same time tell their own people how bad the situation is in our country - call it "communist".

    No, what we need to do is to abolish countries alltogether. If a truly communist revolution is to happen, then this one must be on a global scale, with the majority of workers knowing what they want to achieve (which is communism, and not "just" the overthrow of corruption etc).

When taken to the checkout counter and shown how to pass a couple of items over the scanner, he excitedly voiced his admiration for this "new technology." It was evident he had not visited a supermarket in years, if ever."
