A collection of some classic Lemmy memes for your enjoyment
Communists are rich people who are privileged enough to not work and spend all day larping. They dont know working class people they've never met any.
I'm a communist and that's false for me and every communist I know IRL that I work with, and is also false on an international scale. Communist parties are working class parties.
Most of my friends are some flavor of Anarchist or Socialist. Of the two outright Commies that I've known (who described themselves as such) one was a man of the people and the other was a lazy spoiled phony who's communism expressed itself mainly as sharing memes on facebook.
Communists love to wear working class struggle as a disguise. They aren't working class and once they get power they use and abuse them just like every other rich cunt.
Some communists, not all communists.
Nah pretty safe to say all.
This is nonsense. Communists seek collectivization of production and distribution to satisfy the needs of all, and when communists take power the first things they do is implement measures like land reform, literacy campaigns, and expropriate property from landlords and capitalists to better serve the interests of the people.
First thing they do is strip rights away from people. Second thing they do is start erasing history. Third is increasing police forces to crack down on any dissent.
Communists serve the communist party not the people.
That problem is that not all communists were made equal. I've heard plenty of communists talk that I can respect but MLs aren't the ones. Bolsheviks always managed to get their needs especially met and before anyone elses needs.

Marxism-Leninism is the only branch of communism that has actually successfully implemented socialism. I'm not sure what communists you spoke with that you can respect if you don't respect any that have actually succeeded. The point about MLs ensuring their needs are met before anyone elses is just nonsense considering everywhere socialism has been implemented by MLs has come with dramatic improvements in the lives of the working classes.
