    This is very common but so weird. Like lgbtq+ supporting communism, tards supporting nazism etc, brother they wont and historically speaking haven’t hesitated on camping you day 1.

    What is wrong with these people

      There is nothing inharently anti-lgbtq about communism. There is with fascism. Fascism relies on a cultural mythology to appeals to some form of purity, which usually won’t include LGBTQ+ people because that’s relatively recently accepted.

      Communism doesn’t have any of that. It may include it on a case-by-case basis, but so do capitalist nations and democracies. Just look at the US for that.

      I’m tired of the very basic “communism bad” takes. I thought we were done with that. You can build an argument against it if you want to. It’s not hard. Just saying it’s a boogeyman who causes all the problems isn’t one though

        Case-to-case, as in, all cases? It’s not my fault all commie regimes act like fascist ones, with the only difference being pretending to be scared of money yet using it

          Pretty much every communist group has been undermined by the US. Cuba has done pretty well for itself despite not being able to trade almost at all, for example. There has never been a communist nation that has been free to experiment without US intervention. Of course they all fail. (I wonder why the US is so scared of it succeeding if “it’s always doomed to fail?”)

            And honestly, thank God for that. US and especially CIA have saved perhaps even millions of lives doing that.

            Cuba has done pretty well for itself despite not being able to trade almost at all, for example.

            Gotta hand it out to Cubans, credit where credit is due. Also Cubans have only genocided a little, though it is an interesting thought experiment to have if Cuba was situated in-land with considerable minorities.

            But then we have countries like N.Korea which actively trade with the world thru china yet are shitholes. Or china itself, which was a such a shithole it legitimately had to abandon every part of the economic-portion of communism (but still of course kept the totalitarianism and genocide intrinsic to communism) to make itself stay afloat.
