Communism

Communism is a socioeconomic structure that promotes the establishment of an egalitarian, classless, stateless society based on common ownership of the means of production and property in general.[1]

… is the political and economic doctrine that aims to replace private property and a profit-based economy with public ownership and communal control of at least the major means of production (e.g., mines, mills, and factories) and the natural resources of a society. Communism is thus a form of socialism—a higher and more advanced form, according to its advocates. Exactly how communism differs from socialism has long been a matter of debate, but the distinction rests largely on the communists’ adherence to the revolutionary socialism of Karl Marx.[2]

    dalam bahasa sederhana Mas Marco seorang jurnalis dan tokoh pergerakan di awal abad 20 bilang dalam syairnya….

    Jalan yang kutuju amat panas,
    Banyak duri pun anginnya keras,
    Tali-tali mesti kami tatas,
    Palang-palang juga kami papas,

    Supaya jalannnya SAMA RATA,
    Yang berjalan pun SAMA me RASA
    Enak dan senang bersama-sama
    Yaitu “Sama rasa, sama rata.”
    (dikutip dari Jaman Bergerak : Mosaik Bacaan Kaoem Pergerakan Tempo Doeloe, penyusun Edi Cahyono)
