    communism is supposed to be the democratization of workplaces, on top of democratic politics.
    why do you think that capitalism, that repeatedly navigates around the safety rails (for multiple centuries now) is easier to fix?

        Another classic example of anti-communists trying to describe communism and just ending up describing capitalism.

            i assume you realise capitalism isn’t a defense against dictatorship either? almost every country in the world currently is capitalist, and yet, half of them are a dictatorship, or nearing it (how long til freedom country officially stops being free? there’s still some resistance)
            and also that the usa did everything in their power to curb the spread of communism? multiple democratically elected somewhat socialist leaders were killed or at least deposed, to place money friendly tyrants instead, the ones that survived, were like castro in cuba, because they were extremely careful, to the point of paranoia, or they were too big to tackle, like the soviets and china. not to mention they participated and participate even more nowadays in (state) capitalism
