<div>The members of Communists Anonymous (COMA) suffer from an
incurable belief in communism. They don't share any particular
school, but they do share an extreme sense of empathy and justice, and
therefore detest more or less any form of private property. Because
there is currently no communist state in existence, acting out their
passion would hopelessly distress them, at best curbing and
stabilizing the brutalities of capitalist society. COMA is meant to
evolve into a worldwide cluster of self-help groups where incurable
communists can discuss their recent temptations and relapses in the
futile fight against capitalism.<br>
