A title used by members of the political party that is the furthest to the left. A communist believes that the means of production and the fruits of production should be owned and granted to the workers. (Ex. Factory workers producing snow-globes should jointly own the factory and receive all the profit from the snow-globes that are sold, then divided equitably among the workers). The philosophy of communism arose from a man named Karl Marx who lived in the monarchist Germany in the mid-1800s. Europe was home to many unfair societies at the time, where there were a few rich, (the bourgeoisie) and the rest of society were poor, abused, laborers. Karl Marx advocated destroying the rich aristocracy in favor a country filled with only laborers who governed themselves and everybody was equal, socially and financially.
John believes that he and his fellow coal miners should get the foreman fired and proclaim ownership over the mine and should receive all the profits from the coal's sale, and then share it equitably with his fellows. John is a communist.

People believe that communism is not having to work for your money. This is wrong, a Communist State is when people are forced to work for their Government. They get paid through distributed food and get given a house. Most houses are not much different in communism everyone has the same thing. Most telecom is disabled so you cannot have communication with other country's to know wether or not their is a better country out their. So the only thing you were born with and know is Communism.

A communist can be religious. In fact, they usually are!

They believe that a society in which assets are state owned is practicle, and would actually work out and help the residents of a country.

Well, most of them believe that. Some believe that it's a way for them to gain power.

And really, that's all Communism is about. Power.

But communists will continue to go about trying to achieve something which would only be socially devistating. And they'll do whatever they can to try and achieve it, hurting anyone who comes in their way. See: End justifies the means.
Sean the communist was trying to convert a few people at his workplace to communism. One guy objected to the idea, and that guy was subsequently fired.
