What social class is more important in communism?
Actually, there is no such thing as social class in a communist society. The idea is that everyone is the same, everyone is equal, no one is higher than another, and is all overlooked by the government. I guess you could say the politicians are more important, but then again, that would cancel out the whole idea of communism.

Why did Karl Marx and Freidrich Engles believe in Communism?
Simply because both men lived and fought in revolutionary times and in the class struggle it became clear to both men that the working class had the best programme of all the contending classes. That is the workers state ends exploitation of the workers, and organic agricultural communes replace centers of exploitation and war such as prisons. Everyone works, poverty ends is a known truth in the organized trade union movement around the globe.
Planning and doing aggressive war is the supreme international crime on the planet earth, as it actuates all other crimes high, low, big and small. says the chair of the Nuremburg Trials U.S. Judge Jackson. He further says that it is the supreme international crime on earth whether Germany does it or the U.S.A. does it. F
The U.S. constitution says that international treaties signed on to by the U.S.A are to be treated as the supreme laws of the land. In this sense the anti-fascist covenants which the U.S. is signed on to are being ignored and avoided and the international laws broken as well as the national laws of the U.S.A. Especially where it states that it is the law that if the American Government elected by the people no longer serves the needs of the peoples, (my add plants, animals air land and water) then it is the duty of the American people to alter (reform impeach) or abolish it (revolution) and replace it with one that does serve the needs of the people. This is amplified by Pres. Abraham Lincoln in his government for, by and of the people shall not perish from the earth speech at Gettysburg. Lincoln, Marx, and Engels were on letter exchanging basis before , during and after the war, except that a Southern Slaver killed Lincoln before the reconstruction could be fully done. Something both Marx and Engels were anxious to take part in planning, as Engels was a capitalist that exchaned capital for cotton for his textile mill in England. Marx and Engels was thoroughly opposed in every way to chattel slavery preferring a living wage policy of free labour.
Workers of all countries, unite, is the communist organizing practice globally, and it foreshadows the coming organic revolution that will replace capitalist pollution, gender discrimination, and aggressive war amongst nations. All signs point to the necessity for change as the systems of monopoly capitalism are well known for making maximum profits polluting the environment (coal, gas, oil and atomic energy) which is the reason the natives fought so hard and long against the European Conquest as they knew full well that air, land, and water must be kept in a non-polluted way for the good of all life.
Marx discovered the inner materialist laws of Historical and Herstorical materialism (William Morris taught there), and he centrally formed the basis of the First International of Working men. He was a remarkable genius, and both he and Engels used the new sciences brought into being by the new dialectics of the Industrial Revolution that dispelled the myths and false explanations of how the world must change and move for the new societies to improve living and working conditions. They explained that the new class brought into being by the capitalist fledgling society was creating a class of proletarians that sold their labour power to the capitalists, and that this class alone contained the knowledge to run the new society. That when the conditions of private ownership of the monopolies began to restrict the relations between the classes, that there would arise a condition in which the old relations no longer suited the new needs for liberation from all forms of exploitation, and that made them the most revolutionary of all classes on the planet and the class that would arise to power and overthow all encumbrances to the new socialist society, the workers state which instrument that would end exploitation of man by man and renew and restore the matriarchy which will return the material harmony and joy to the species that has been missing since the Roman Slaveholders conquest of it around 42AD and onwards. This act of the revolution will be the end of class rule and the liberation of all peoples. The new science of Ecology will also end exploitation of air, land, water, plants animals and peoples.

Is private property allowed in communism?
well, all private property goes to the government i think. (this is because communist believe everyone should be equal). but REALLY rich people can get some land i think, but the gov usually get annoyed about this. farmers land is taken away from them and they farm in a gov run farm with a BUNCH of other farmers. they are all treated really badly. and i don't get it,communism is meant to make everyone equal.... so why are farmers treated really badly and why do the gov get everything? communism isn't a political party for equality, its a political party that wants everything to themselves, so they take it away from others. hope i helped u out! :)

What is a Communist Totalitarian?
A communist government is a social systemcharacterized by the absence of social classes, and is completely Socialist, thus having poor quality health care for it's citizens. Socialism is basically when the Government starts to take over and control big businesses and the health care industry. Socialism is the material base for communism. The communist government has failed every where it was tried but is still used in some countries, China for example. Totalitarianism is when there is one person in charge of a country (dictator) and they rule with complete power over the country. so basically totalitarian communism is a badly run government system that can't provide for it's citizens and has one person in charge of the entire countries operations whether the citizens like it or not. and is completely irreversible unless the person in charge wants to go through the hassle of reversing it, which has never and will never happen. The totalitarian leader serves a term of however long he or she wants and can appoint the next person in charge without any election.
