Anyone here have an interest in communal living?
I have visited several secular communes.
All were rural income-sharing communities. Most had sucessful businesses. All advertized themselves as secular and open minded. BUT! I saw pressure to make on'es thinking conform with a kooky agenda. At one, a woman SCREAMED at me over a difference of opinion on a ploitical matter. At another, men who made waves were slandered with charges of "sexual harasser", to scare them away or ruin their reputation. At all, doctrinaire Marxists can be found. Moral of my story: take their claims of freethinking ways with a grain of salt.

But REALLY watch out for the Republican Party. they have WMD, aim at world domination, & are led by mass murderer who thinks God tells him what to do.

Anyone who disagrees with them is labled a traitor
& will be publicly smeared if considered a threat.
