PowderdToastMan Posted September 16, 2011 Author Share Posted September 16, 2011 I reject adopting "yippie" as that connotes a much smaller group, and the hippie movement encompassed a much wider group who held anti-war sentiments, even on a casual level. And communes is notably and obviously communist terminology. Communists believe in the government handling every aspect of life. which is, of course, the antithesis of the american dream, and the american way. Henceforth - anti-american Obvious communist terminology? No, but I find that amusingly predictable. Communism is an ism - a monetary system. A commune is an interdependent community who shares their resources, work load, food and essentials. Other words that originate from the same root etymology are Communicate (implying a shared language or understanding), community (a shared residential area or professional association). Also communion, a spiritual merging, prayer, or eucharist; it means to have or to hold things in common. Words are not dirty. People twist them into dirty things, most often using propaganda. ooh your good. That was a mis -speak...type on my part. What i should have said is not that communes is communist terminology, but that communist systems use communes as a way of implimenting their programs. But i would disagree that communism is nothing but a money system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghogiel Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 http://www.politicalcompass.org/printablegraph?ec=-2.00&soc=-2.46 Some things I really wanted to answer with a I don't know\don't care. So being forced to have an opinion on something there is zero basis form an opinion on has skewed my results a tad bit me thinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
