May the 4th be with you.
Do you know what I hate?
I hate it when you’re grappling with someone, say randori ne-waza, and their head is pressed against yours to hold you down, and you are both sweating, and an exchange of sweat occurs.
That’s what I hate.
hi, we are having a game night this saturday. you can come over anytime after 5 p.m. dinner is not served. or provided. bring board games that people will want to play, or maybe if people wont want to, but can be convinced to play. RSVP, or not.
You can invite people that you think we will probably like, but if we don’t like, we may kick them off of the balcony. or the third story balcony. or the roof… whatever works best for their intended end. (you know. just broken legs, paralysis, death.. whatever).

Tonight, whilst eating yogurt on the roof, I told myself a joke.
In my head.
I told myself a joke in my head.
The joke I told myself, in my head, caused me to laugh out loud.
The joke I told myself, caused me to laugh out loud for two minutes straight.
1.1 Communism: communism (A scheme of equalizing the social conditions of life;
specifically, a scheme which contemplates the abolition of
inequalities in the possession of property, as by
distributing all wealth equally to all, or by holding all
wealth in common for the equal use and advantage of all.) as it pertains to Karl Marx’s views presented in The Communist Manifesto.
1.2 Words where the meaning is unclear are defined as they are used in Karl Marx’s views presented in The Communist Manifesto.
2.1 The cycle of society is such that there will always be a class of oppressors and a class of the oppressed. But the cycle, being a cycle, results in the oppressors becoming the oppressed, and the oppressed becoming the oppressors, so on and so forth.
2.1.1 This endless cycle of oppressors becoming oppressed is at a standstill in the bourgeoisie and proletariat. (There are other classes, but they will fade, as machines and factories remove other jobs.) The status quo has resulted in machinery slowly replacing and lowering the wages of the proletarian, the workers. And the oppressed have no way of becoming the oppressors.
2.1.2 The only hope for the proletariats is that they are forming ‘unions’ and by becoming unified across countries, they have the ability to, as a majority, to remove the key to the bourgeoisie’s control, by removing competition between the laborers.
2.2 The communists work to unite the proletariat across nationality.
2.2.1 The communists work to remove all private property. This is because all private property belongs to the bourgeoisie, and any dminishing middle class, not the proletarian.
2.2.2 The communists believe that many social structures and religions are simply a result of what will help and allow the current ruling class to rule, presently the burgiousies.
2.3 While many philosophers and suedo-philosophers would agree or claim to agree that change is needed, the others methods fail because they are all based on restoring a previous, less harsh system of ruling class and inferior class. However, the historical cycle has been shown to progressively result in a ruling class and an inferior class, which is not preferred.
2.4 The communists support whatever party will further the unity and creation of a strong proletarian class. This may sometimes mean supporting the bourgeoisie for a time, but always with the goal of a revolution focusing on the proletariat.
3.1 While this theory of a happy community in which all work for all is nice, it is only nice in theory. If we ignore any shortcomings in the need for a change, and attempt to accept communism as an alternative to the status quo, there is one major shortcoming: the belief that a society could exist in which all worked for the good of all is undermimed by his own argument. If it truly worked that way, when the inferior class, in the historical cycle, became the ruling class, they would attempt to help all, having experienced being oppressed. However, history shows each is out for himself, and only wants ‘society’ to benefit as much as it benefits the individual.
