Communism is good. I learn communism when I was young in public school. Communism is soo good. The world needd communism.

  • Said me, a person who live in the country with one political party - the communist party

Cool, I say that too. A person who lives in a country with multiple political parties - a variety of lib and chud parties

The only people calling themselves “free thinkers” for thinking that communism is bad, are the people in the west though.

Lol, "institutional think is right thinking" says someone who can't do anything more radical than post memes on the internet.

claims communism is bad

wants thoughts to be free

i'm a capitalist, i want advertisements beamed into my dreams and i want to be charged for all of my thoughts- the added benefit being my head is kept clear.

CIA and Nazis agree? Must be true. I guess communism is bad, and thinking so makes me a free thinker. Thank you for the enlightening post.

[-] MaeBorowski@lemmy.ml 3 points 18 hours ago

Is this sarcasm? The venn diagram that represents overlap of what nazis believe & value vs what the CIA believes & values may not be a perfect circle, but it's fairly close.

Here's one to go get angry about, the Jordan Peterson crowd saying "Communism is slavery to the state".

I mean, the argument that communism is slavery to the state is a real and valid argument as of 2024.

It's not like capitalism is any less a form of slavery, except instead of stealing from everybody to give to everybody it steals from everybody and gives it all to insurance companies and other businesses benefiting oligarchs. The whole system is slavery under another name, work for the luxury of having a place to sleep at night so that your owner can live a comfortable life. Slavery to many masters who use your body for their gains.

There's not going to be a system that you're not a slave to though, unless we somehow find a way to trivially convert matter to energy and vice versa and build a utopia where machines do everything for us... and we all share the rewards. All hail science fiction communism? (and keep in mind science fiction keeps becoming reality! Just don't hold your breath for this in our lifetimes.)

Communism is, by definition, stateless. No, that's not a valid argument and never was.

That ML groups work that way tells a lot about ML, not communism.

[-] vonxylofon@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

It's bold to assume communists give to everybody, or basically anybody.

Is the D Deutsche Welle? Or what is that? The other ones are clear.

It is thanks. Looks quite similar to German English broadcast DW.

[-] AI_toothbrush@lemmy.zip 0 points 1 day ago

I get what youre going for but the whole argument breaks down when you take into account that socdem exists. These same people oppose it, while we still dont want communism.

[-] OurToothbrush@lemmy.ml 15 points 1 day ago

Social democrats don't have a coherent answer for the imperialism question, which is the primary contradiction of this era. Social democrats still want to maintain hyperprofits as the expense of the global proletariat
