I happen to like it very much.
Agreed. I’m a liberal and I wouldn’t consider myself a “moderate liberal” in every respect either (I support universal healthcare and think public universities should be free), but lefties who think communism is actually a good idea mystify me. Every single country that’s gone down that road has devolved into a dictatorship, and that’s by design, not merely a flaw in execution. Communists are as bad as fascists; they both aim for authoritarian rule.
Don’t confuse communism with the tankies, as much as the tankies would like you to.
A tankie once told me that “From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs” was problematic. That’s when you know you aren’t dealing with a real communist and are in fact dealing with a Red Fascist.
I’m not. I know what communism is and why it sucks ass. Tankies are another breed altogether.
