of my schools student government
Me and my friends got someone who wanted to be president to be communist and we advertised them as communists and they got elected.
We have been trying to get them to change the titles of homecoming "queen" and "king" to "chairman" and "chairwomen" and change the colors of the school from purple and gold to red and gold.
We also got people to get a uniform and we called them our military and managed to get the hall monitors to be called the KGB.
But alas, all good things must end and the teachers finally got annoyed and kicked us off.
Our next party to elect is fascist. |

| Communism was intentionally made to treat everyone equally. So in that case, teachers have no authority to kick the Communist party out, so you don't have to leave, because you're both of equal authority in intentional Communism. |

| Communism isn't actually a bad form of government, it just involves EVERYONE IN THE WORLD having it. |

"Communism isn't actually a bad form of government"
that's because it's not government
it's economy |

@mikey
Noted now I have to somehow explain that to the superintendent, because the whole reason they kicked us out was because the local news learned about this and compared it to the "third wave" fascist experiment in the 60s and the teachers were all like "o hel no" |

If you wanted to be specific we were a proletarian dictatorship but communism is just much easier to say, not? |

| So did they kick you out because you appeared to be starting an organized "gang"(The fact you got people to run around in uniforms as a protective force), or on the idea that you were a "Communist party"? |

| On paper, Communism wasn't a bad idea. Intentionally, Communism SHOULD'VE been the dividing up of money,etc. equally and that everyone is equal. But that didn't happen. |

@Mikey
But that was in theory. Due to the human nature, not everyone wants to be treated equal, and thus making communism always an instant failure in reality. Not to mention that Soviet Russia stereotyped Communism. |

The uniform was basically a t-shirt colored red. Other than that, nothing happened with them. We got kicked out simply because we were acting like communists. |
