Anarchist Communism

A ideology and philosophy first coined by Peter Kropotkin in Conquest of Bread. It is the idea of a society based around a loosely connected of free-association communes based off of a gift economy. Anarchism being a ideology rejecting heirarchial government and authority in favor of free-associations and Communism being an economic philosophy promoting economic equality. Anarchist Communism is, but one idea regarding the economic structure of an anarchist thought, other ideologies include Anarchist Syndicalism, Anarchist Capitalism, Anarchist Collectivism, and Anarchist Individualism and others.

Anarchist Communism was a prominent ideology in the American anarchist movement in the early 1900s with prominent thinkers such as Emma Goldman and Alexander Berkman. Earlier Anarchists who could be identified as Anarchist Communists included Dyer D. Lum, August Spies, and many of the Haymarket Martyrs who were executed as a result of the Haymarket Riots in 1886.

Anarchist Communism as an active and serious ideology in recent years especially after the USSR persecuted and imprisoned many members of the Anarchist movement during the years under Lenin and Stalin among others. A small comeback of Anarchist thought including Anarchist Communist thought has come about within the Anarcho-Punk and Crust Punk musics along with other leftist subcultures.

Anarchist Communism has recieved a negative stigma (along with all other forms of Anarchist thought) as a result of many anti-anarchist propaganda and laws (such as a law exiling non-citizen anarchists) in America, the USSR, and the commericalization of the symbology and ideas.

The symbol of Anarchist Communism and Anarchist Syndicalism is a red and black flag, with half being one color and the other half being the other color split diaganolly.

Gay Space Communism

Gay Space Communism is a utopian society without gender norms, labour, and inequality. It's a naively optimistic outlook on the future, and all its advocates are aware.

The term originates from the ideology "Fully Automated Luxury Communism" which evolved into "Fully Automated Luxury Gay Space Communism" / "Fully Automated Luxury Queer Space Communism". These versions of the phrase are the key in understanding what Gay Space Communism entails.

Fully Automated - Every production is operated automatically. As a result, there is no need for people to do labour anymore.
Luxury - Since work is obsolete, every citizen lives in comfort.
Gay/Queer - Rejection of heteronormativity. Gender, sexuality, and all such social constructs are abolished.
Space - This form of society is only attainable in the distant future (in a "sci-fi-esque space civilization"; post-automation, post-work, and post-scarcity).
Communism - Products are provided to every citizen based on their need.
We must not settle for anything less than Gay Space Communism!

Modern Communist

People who only respect people who have the same opinion as them.

They find everyone who has different opinion than them very rude.

They don't believe in freedom of word.

If you say or write something they disagree with, they are most likely to fight you.
They really dislike hearing things they disagree with.

These people are often American teenagers (mostly female) who didn't experience communism in their country.

Modern communists are called like that because when there was communism in Slavic countries, people weren't able to express their opinions and when they said something communists didn't like, they made sure that they badly regretted it.

Example of conversation:
Person: *uses constructive critism or says/writes any unpopular opinion or something that modern communist disagrees with*
Modern communist : DIDN'T YOUR MOM TEACH YOU THAT IF YOU HAVE NOTHING NICE TO SAY THEN YOU SHOULDN'T SAY ANYTHING AT ALL!?
Or:
Modern communist: OMG, SHUT UP, IT'S 2020!

Or:
Modern communist: OMG WHO ASKED?
If any person tells you to be quiet because of your opinions, then they are a modern communists.
Example:
Did Charles just tell you that you should shut up because it's 2020 and your opinions aren't cool enough in his opinion?

Then Charlie is a modern communist.
