There were also those communalist in Germany that formed that farmers' republic.

Wat Tyler is also /OurComrade/

Literally tried to organise communal towns for the proletariat.

Wew lads, you all forgot Thomas Müntzer, and other heroes of German peasant wars. These guys are ours more than anyone else, everyone should know them.

Honduran Logging communities in the Bay of Campeche (who would later become pirates already listed)

and of course the big j-dizzle

"NOW THE FULL NUMBER OF THOSE WHO BELIEVED WERE OF ONE HEART AND ONE SOUL, AND NOONE SAID ANYTHING OF THE THINGS THAT BELONGED TO HIM WERE HIS OWN, BUT THEY HAD EVERYTHING IN COMMON. AND WITH GREAT POWER THE APOSTLES WERE GIVING THEIR TESTIMONY TO THE RESURRECTION OF THE LORD JESUS, AND GREAT GRACE WAS UPON THEM ALL. THERE WAS NOT A NEEDY PERSON AMONG THEM, FOR AS MANY AS WERE OWNERS OF LANDS OR HOUSES SOLD THEM AND BROUGHT THE PROCEEDS OF WHAT WAS SOLD AND LAID IT AT THE APOSTLES FEET AND IT WAS DISTRIBUTED TO EACH AS ANY HAD NEED!"
ACTS 4:32-35

Oh and the entire village community system and early medieval city state guild system before feudalism

John Ball and English peasants' revolt
White armies of the German Peasants' war and Geyer's black company
Gracchi for plebeian rule
Mazdakis in Persia
Ikko Ikki leagues in Japan

Was raised in a southern baptist church and was told to read the Bible everyday.

I did. The arguments that took place after the fact forced me to leave the church.

I mean a lot of the people mentioned are /chrisoc/.

Also, what about the native americans? I guess they were still proto-communism but still.

Don't forget the big one, Matthew 6:24

t is God's gift to humankind that everyone should eat and drink and take pleasure in all their toil

— (Ecc. 3: 13).
^Tbh, that is the most socialist.

Also this from the new:
Come now, you rich, weep and howl for the miseries that are coming upon you. Your riches have rotted and your garments are moth-eaten. Your gold and silver have rusted, and their rust will be evidence against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have laid up for treasure for the last days. ==Behold, the wages of the labourers who mowed your fields, which you have kept back by fraud, cry out; and the cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of hosts. You have lived on the earth in luxury and in pleasure; you have fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter==

— (Jam. 5:1–6)

Seriously, the fact that they were so based for their time, and that they had the ubermensch strength to literally fight against literal genocide attempts at the hands of the white Burgers, I'm baffled as to why they don't get more credit.

Because people turn stuff like that into "anti-white" SJW idpol rhetoric.

Adam Smith

Because everyone always forgets about them because it's really fucking upsetting to think about it. One of the most fucked up things about the impact of Europeans moving into the Americas is that the diseases they brought moved across the continent faster than they did. By the time whites got past basically the east coast, the peoples they were interacting with were essentially living in a post-apocalyptic world after the diseases fucked them up.

However, tensions quickly rose. According to a contemporary chronicler, Tyler acted contemptuously, calling for a flagon of water to rinse his mouth 'because of the great heat that he was in' and when he received the water 'he rinsed his mouth in a very rude and disgusting fashion before the King's face'. Sir John Newton (a servant of the king) insulted Tyler by calling him 'the greatest thief and robber in all Kent'. Tyler attacked Newton, but was restrained and arrested by the Lord Mayor of London, William Walworth . Tyler then attempted to stab the mayor, who was saved by his armour. Walworth slashed his attacker across the neck and head with his sword, and another of the king's servants, possibly John Cavendish , stabbed Tyler again, severely wounding him. Tyler managed to ride thirty yards before he fell from his horse. In the disorder that followed, he was taken to a hospital for the poor, but was tracked down by the mayor, brought back to Smithfield, and publicly decapitated. Tyler's head was placed atop a pole and carried through the city, then displayed on London Bridge.

What a badass

Did somebody say PIRATE POSTING??

5 Now a man named Ananias, together with his wife Sapphira, also sold a piece of property. 2 With his wife’s full knowledge he kept back part of the money for himself, but brought the rest and put it at the apostles’ feet.

3 Then Peter said, “Ananias, how is it that Satan has so filled your heart that you have lied to the Holy Spirit and have kept for yourself some of the money you received for the land? 4 Didn’t it belong to you before it was sold? And after it was sold, wasn’t the money at your disposal? What made you think of doing such a thing? You have not lied just to human beings but to God.”

5 When Ananias heard this, he fell down and died. And great fear seized all who heard what had happened. 6 Then some young men came forward, wrapped up his body, and carried him out and buried him.

7 About three hours later his wife came in, not knowing what had happened. 8 Peter asked her, “Tell me, is this the price you and Ananias got for the land?”

“Yes,” she said, “that is the price.”

9 Peter said to her, “How could you conspire to test the Spirit of the Lord? Listen! The feet of the men who buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out also.”

10 At that moment she fell down at his feet and died. Then the young men came in and, finding her dead, carried her out and buried her beside her husband. 11 Great fear seized the whole church and all who heard about these events.
