Purvis why are you still pretending Turkmenistan is communist? Hilariously totalitarian, sure, but communist? Not since the Soviet Union fell.
Aren't Hugo S?pez and I technically the only ones to maintain their communist governments to the present day and are still, you know, alive? (No, wait, so is Kilga's namesake. Unfortunately. Though, can we really say that Kim Jong Il is a communist? A really lapsed one, if nothing else.)

It just occurred to me that we don't have a Hu Jintao. That seems like a pretty big omission.

Nor is there a Pol Pot or a Augusto Nicol?s Calder?n Sandino.

I don't think I've seen a Che Guevara either.  I want to mention the Duvaliers but they weren't communist.

Yeah, Pol Pot pretty much proved to the world that a literal interpretation of Maoism would be a colossal and catastrophic failure.

God, I wish I still had my books on Nicaragua and Sandino. Then I could throw out all kinds of crazy stuff about him. As it stands, the only thing I remember is that he wasn't all THAT left-wing; the Kuomintang marched into Beijing carrying his portrait, yeah, but later he ended up taking a rather different approach from the rest of international communism. (I don't actually remember if the Comintern denounced him, or if my memory is just blending facts again.)

As for Pol Pot, we're fine without one. Really. :S 
I could go for a Che Guevara, though!

Its too bad he died before he got his sentence. Mass killing everyone that could pose a threat. Religion, singers, teachers. It...it... >:(

Come to think of it, I should probably find someone else to base my name on, since upon further inspection, Maximiliano Hern?ndez Mart?nez was actually fascist, not communist. :<

How about them Maoists in Nepal? Surely they have a leader of some kind, don't they?

Ah, c'mon communism - get your act together! Staff's all over the place.

What about Friedrich Engels? He was no leader, but he and Marx wrote the idea as we know it today? Or, for a less known one, what about Clara Zetkin or Alexey Rykov?

We need a Bakunin and a Kropotkin, too.

Also:

Sandino, to me, was just a bad motherfucker who took on the US Marines, leading them into a disastrous guerrilla campaign in the jungle. He was the original, the source, the dude who inspired so many after him, and not just in Latin America. I think his main MO was more "get the US out of here" than "get the US out of here and then institute a glorious socialist revolution".

I considered going with Pol Purvis, but Niyazov is so much better.


ATTENTION

IT IS NOW MANDATORY FOR EMPLOYEES OF THE STATE TO PASS A TEST ON THE WORKS OF WIZ GARAGE IN ORDER TO BE ACCEPTED INTO A POSITION. ALL CURRENT STATE EMPLOYEES WILL BE REQUIRED TO PASS IT OR GIVE UP THEIR POSITION TO MORE QUALIFIED CANDIDATES.

THAT IS ALL.

IT HAS BEEN REVEALED THAT THE WORKS OF FLIPFLOPS SHALL BE PART OF THE WRITTEN MATERIALS ACCEPTED INTO CPMC. THIS SHALL HEREBY BE KNOWN AS THE CIRNAMA. UNDERSTANDING OF THESE MATERIALS IS OF GREATEST IMPORTANCE FOR ALL MEMBERS OF THE STATE.
