Why does communism(not tankies) suck and why are your politics better?

I believe I already explained that. Give me an example of a country going communist and not becoming a dictatorship.

My politics are better because they don’t result in that.

Every major power is sinking into dictatorship. Every major power is contributing to climate change, which will result mass deaths and displacements.

Oh, please, that’s got to be the biggest false equivalence I’ve heard in a while now. Every single communist nation has rapidly become a dictatorship, because that’s literally what’s supposed to happen in the transition phase. That’s totally different from real democracies being eroded by far-right extremists—and plenty of the world’s democracies are still fighting those extremists and their democracies are still alive. Stop hand-waiving away these stark differences with bullshit generalizations like that.
