Sure.
Ant Colonies & Beehives
Shared Labor: Worker ants and bees collectively gather food, care for young, and defend the colony without individual ownership.
Resource Distribution: Food is stored and distributed based on need (e.g., larvae are fed by workers, and the queen receives special care).
No Private Property: The entire colony functions as a single unit with no individual ownership of resources.
2. Naked Mole Rats
Eusocial Structure: Like ants, they live in colonies with a single breeding queen and non-reproductive workers.
Cooperative Care: All members contribute to digging tunnels, gathering food, and protecting the colony.
Food Sharing: They practice trophallaxis (mouth-to-mouth feeding) to distribute food evenly.
3. Vampire Bats
Reciprocal Altruism: Bats that successfully feed will regurgitate blood to share with hungry colony members, ensuring mutual survival.
Collective Survival: This system prevents individuals from starving, reinforcing group cohesion.
4. Certain Fungal Networks (Mycorrhizae)
Resource Redistribution: Fungi form symbiotic networks with plant roots, distributing nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus to plants in need.
"Wood Wide Web": Forests operate as interconnected systems where older trees support younger ones through fungal networks.
5. Penguin Huddles
Shared Warmth: Emperor penguins huddle together to conserve heat, rotating positions so no single penguin stays on the cold outskirts for too long.
Collective Survival: The group’s survival takes priority over individual comfort.
6. Meerkat Colonies
Cooperative Hunting & Guard Duty: While some forage, others stand guard against predators, sharing the responsibility of protection.
Communal Pup-Rearing: Non-breeding members help feed and protect the young.
7. Algae & Slime Molds
Collective Behavior: Some slime molds operate as a single superorganism when food is scarce, pooling resources for survival.
No Central Control: Decisions (like movement) are made collectively without a leader.
8. Bonobo Societies
Egalitarian Structure: Unlike hierarchical chimpanzees, bonobos share food freely and resolve conflicts through cooperation rather than dominance.
Mutual Aid: Food-sharing and social bonding reinforce group harmony.
Why This Resembles Communism
These examples reflect key communist ideals:
Collective ownership (no individual hoarding of resources).
From each according to ability, to each according to need (e.g., worker ants, vampire bats).
Lack of social hierarchy (in some species, like bonobos).
Verses Capitalism, where scarcity is required over abundance, so to increase profitability. This is why nature is the enemy and must be destroyed. Capitalism is suicide. Communism is eternal.
Ya gotta be kidding me. Bee colonies are not communist. They are queen ruled matriarchies. The men lay around and sometimes breed the queen, the other females are worked to death. No communism there. No communism in ants either. The war and fight and have a stratified heirarchy. Worker, warriors, a queen that rulles them all. You're a fruitloop. You see what you want to see, not what is actually in front of your eyes.
Ok, I'll give the you slime molds as a win... I can see how you can relate. Both being communist and all.
