Hello!
My name is Rangerjs1 and from the United States and currently reside there.
I am a Marxist-Leninist and believe we must put all effort towards the promotion and propagation of Scientific socialism and that Communism is the only path forwards for us as a species.
I speak English as my primary and first language and speak/am continuing to learn Spanish as my second language.
I have been an atheist since the age of 6 when I learn about evolution and rejected Christianity on the basis that intelligent design had been disproven by the theory of evolution. I therefore, on the same basis, reject all non-materialistic analysis of the world. I have also become an antitheist due to a belief that religion causes great harm to the working class.
I will try to contribute to Prolewiki in whatever way I can though primarily I try to focus on history.

“Have these gentlemen ever seen a revolution? A revolution is certainly the most authoritarian thing there is; it is the act whereby one part of the population imposes its will upon the other part by means of rifles, bayonets and cannon — authoritarian means, if such there be at all; and if the victorious party does not want to have fought in vain, it must maintain this rule by means of the terror which its arms inspire in the reactionists.“
— Frederick Engels, On Authority
“I can hardly believe that it took a revolution to teach the world that extreme disparities in wealth lie at the root of many ills and crimes, but we are not the less convinced that the realization of an equality of fortunes is a visionary’s dream.”
— Maximilien Robespierre
“I leave to the oppressors of humanity a terrible testament, which I proclaim with the independence befitting one whose career is so nearly ended; it is the awful truth: ‘Thou shalt die!’”
— Maximilien Robespierre
“The United States appear to be destined by Providence to plague America with misery in the name of liberty.“
