Yea but
"Remember when you buy dope you are supporting COMMUNISM!"
sounds better than:
"Remember when you buy dope you are supporting JUCHE!"

Most would be like "Juche? did he misspell Jews or something?"

What about Songun? Then we can rope it into a gun thread because it has the word gun in it.

Sounds needlessly complicated. Can't we just use the old way and turn any thread we want into a gun thread? I mean, that would certainly make some people happy, unless someone then came to derail that derail and then we'd have derail of the derailers throwing tantrums at the other derailers who thought the second derailment was better than the original one?

You would hurt the communist gun's feelings by trying to use capitalistic methods of buying it instead of taking it to yourself because you need a gun. What you're looking for here is a fascist halberd.

WHAT? A good communist would never "take" anything. He would wait for the government to give him what it thinks he needs.

Okay, you've got me there. A good communist wouldn't buy a gun either. I know - I'll vote Communist next time and demand that the government give everybody a gun.

A good democratic Swiss pike might do. I understand they make everybody own one of those too.

Pike are an offensive weapon.

Government is a socialist (and pretty much everyone else) concept and a country calling itself communistic is hilarious. Heck, even the Soviet Union did at least more often that not define itself as a socialist state on its way towards communism.

Meh, count me out. I don't want my weapon to demand a referendum every time I want to kill someone with it.
