Aye, I felt weird using communism too. It does have a lot of baggage. Personally, I was hoping no one would think I am a communist, and then make fun of me for it or something. -_-

That's just how it is. Communists just don't have a good standing, even if a "commucoin" that actually worked could exist.

The real point is that the game has changed, and it's awesome to finally have a lot more options.
