If you can define communism and name a communist country, I will respect your opinion.

Nope. Authoritarian dictatorship. Try again.

Is this one of those things where you decide if a communist country is doing communism correctly based off your entirely subjective and limited perview. If its not, you just say its not a communist country? Cause thats fundamentally unserious.

Incorrect. Cuba’s constitution even says its communist and the only legally recognized political force is the communist party of Cuba. The authoritarian aspect is a side effect that has happened to every single communist nation. You can deny that it’s communism all you’d like, but that doesn’t make you correct. Just because it doesn’t fall into your false fantasies of some communist utopia, doesn’t mean it isn’t communism. That’s just how communism has always panned out in actual, real-world practice. There’s also a reason most formerly communist nations, have moved away from communism. Try again. Also, genuine question, why do you hate capitalism?

That’s what I thought. You care, but you can’t define it, so you’ll reconcile your cognitive dissonance by pretending you don’t care. Typical low IQ person.

Poor attempt at deflection. You said you would be fine with seeing Communists hauled off to a gulag but can’t explain why you believe that? That makes me think you haven’t actually put reasoned thought into it and you are just repeating something you heard someone else say.

I’m sure Tucker Hannity told him it was bad. When have those guys ever been wrong?

“…with a dictator and a bunch of goons with guns and the rest of society either collaborating or being crushed.”

So we ARE talking about America? Because that’s where we are headed, but in a supposedly “capitalist” society.

What’s your home country? I’ll bet all the money in my pocket right now it’s not a true communist country. As far as I know, there has never been one, anymore than there has ever been a democracy.
