How did you come to this actual communist phase?  I'm asking.
      What makes a person believe I remain a communist beyond the desire to progress the goals of a better society? The communists remain correct on certain issues, but the current problems in the United States of America remain impervious to the ideologies of the conservatives, liberals, libertarians, anarchists, and proprietors of the various ideologies in the minority parties. The other parties, in part, remain susceptible to the influence of currency and the wealthy. The entire idea began in pursuit of an ideology to understand the events in the world around me. The contemporary liberalism ideology of complete equality remains a repulsive concept because the people will never achieve complete equality, and the government holds a monopoly on the application of force.  Since the contemporary liberals simply wanted to ensure the dominance of the wealthy over the impoverished through the integration of the population into the bourgeois system, the concept of liberalism remains a deplorable idea. The conservatives want to pursue a policy of moral slavery over the country while the wealthy remain free from the responsibility towards the health of the country. The Anarchists remain a nonviable form of government, and the homo sapiens never exist in a self sustained manner where the the strongest in a community dominate under the auspices of the libertarians. What other option could I agree with when I could not remain a moderate in the face of incontrovertible evidence the wealthy own and control the major means of production, media, and government in the United States of America? The other option remains apathy, but I have never been an apathetic person towards the issues that other people deem "too big" and inconsequential for the average person. The ultimate answer remains complicated with the continual development of a personal identity, and I do not agree with the social justice warriors about the need to liberate the women etc. The only people that need liberation remains the majority of the Americans from the purview of the bourgeoisie.
      The problem with the country appears with the evidence below on the presence of property. The top ten percent of the citizens in the United States of America own over 80% of the assets and the wealth in the country while the bottom 80% own a meager 10% of the assets. How can people create an equitable society when the majority own a super majority of the financial resources. Carl Marx and Friedrich Engels states
"You are horrified at our intending to do away with private property. But in your existing society private property is already done with for nine-tenths of the population; its existence for the few is solely due to its non-existence in the hands of those nine-tenths. You reproach us, therefore, with intending to do away with a form of property, the necessary condition for whose existence is the nonexistence of property for the vast majority of society" (87).
What purpose does the private property serve except to promote the power of the bourgeoisie and the ruling class? How can a equitable society exist when about 48% of the population lives in the poverty level or within 150% of the poverty level? The question does not even touch the antiquated definition of the "poverty level," but the answer remains the country possesses a number of serious problems that lead back towards the distribution of the means of production and private property in the country.
 The ultimate answer remains I want to observe a world where the people do not need to worry about the security of housing, food, clothing, and basic necessities. The party will lead the people towards a glorious future full of bright prospects and bountiful freedom from the bourgeois notion of private property.

Watching cable, while some allude to Flynn's "abrasive  management style" as the reason for his dismissal, it seems that he did in fact publish a report critical of Obama while working at the Pentagon, as well as publically saying things like "Islam is a cancer". I don't think that you get to criticize your CIC and insult our allies at high levels and keep your job.

I don't think any of that reflects well on the man at all...

At the moment nobody bothers me as much as Jeff Sessions.  It seems to me that [Sleezebag]'s utter lack of government experience and Constitutional awareness means that the two most important and critical positions are Attorney General and White House Councel. The people who will tell him "You can't do that!"

IIRC, it's against the UCMJ, so they likely gave him an out that kept him from losing his benefits.

Well, if they give him bad constitutional law advice, would leave him more open for impeachment...
But then, we would have to deal with Pence...

Exactly. The guy who diverted AIDS treatment money to gay conversion therapy. The guy who insisted on funerals for fetuses. The guy who brought economic boycotts down upon his state, and couldn't get re-elected. No thanks. I want [Sleezebag] to finish his term.

...It was nothing but a deeply trashy publicity-hungry celebrity, and the less we said its name the better.  I refused to have my place be part of the problem.  Now, it's technically president-elect.  Can't justify it anymore, the damage being done...

Mankind has been blind for thousands of years?for all of its history. We have come to a place whose wonders are a hundred-fold more amazing than anything on Earth. Around us is clear evidence of the will of a higher power. I bring the Vision to the blind eyes of men. I bring the Word to the deaf ears of men. I will make them see it. I will make them hear it.
