Post by: Rictor on August 28, 2004, 03:12:07 pm: so. almost every country has a communist party, including the US.

Hmm, after careful consideration, I'm going to Greece to commit some political crimes. Anyone want to come with?

Though these days, most communist parties in western countries don't actually advocate communism, since they know they wouldn't get a single damn supporter running on that platform, but rather just call for a generally leftward stance.
