Just ask plainly:

Are you or have you ever been a member of the Communist Party of the United States?



You have hit a tough crowd.


No but I did go to a meeting once. They had doughnuts.


I once went to a talk at Berkeley's Revolution Books.

Fortunately, I doubt if they could topple a suburban HOA.

Edit: Revolution Books, not Revolution Cafe.


Are you kidding? American communists are more fractious than Quakers - they couldn't topple a game of Jenga if you pulled half the blocks out first.


True. That was a bad example. Some HOAs are tough.


So's Bob Avakian, I hear. But he's only got three fans.


That was clearly an FBI honeypot. Real communist meetings only serve Engels Food Cake.


Depending who you ask Engels was the first Revisionist!
