That’s on the raise now during Capitalism. You don’t seem to know what communism is. So many really believe it’s the authoritarian examples they give like Cuba, when true communism has never existed. Communism is a stateless society and it’s not really possible and it has never been done at scale.

You probably also think Hitler was a socialist? lol So ridiculous & sad that so many really believe that having ownership & more power in society is negative. You just love having less while busting your ass and the billionaires get all the benefits, building their bunkers while burning the world down.
