Comment on Communism

  They do not care about implementing communism genuinely, it’s a propaganda tactic, you are aware politicians lie, right? This is akin to saying “the party of building an egalitarian utopia!” And then immediately enslaving half the population. You would have to be an incredible fool to take their word for it and not look at their actions. To think that you think this is an anticommunist gotcha and not a clear case of lying to the public is embarrassing on your part.

    Do you think creating an egalitarian society is possible ?

      The question is irrelevant, we should get as close as possible, and certainly enslaving people is no way to get there.

      Not in the current state the human race finds itself. Maybe someday, but we are nowhere near there yet. Until then any attempt to create “a stateless, classless, currencyless society in which the workers own the means of production society” will likely fail and devolve into something terrible, whether they have good intentions or not, and whether they call themselves communist or not.

        So how do we know if a communist leader is going to be column A or B before they take power?
