I too dislike the commies.

watch this... i am betting nonazis_nocommunists doesnt really know what it is that he doesnt like about communist people...

because technically, commune-ism is probably the most wonderful and humane way to live.. to live in a commiune where everyone shares and is equal..

so, what is it that you dont like about commune-ism?

I'm not against cooperative communes.

"Free love" hippie communes are only good for the alpha-males and the women who get their seeds. But that's a bad stereotype yet is why so many of them failed.

No one is equal, but everyone should be treated fairly. And sharing resources is good. It always seems absurd walking around my neighbourhood that everyone has a garage with the same shit when 6+ houses could share 1 lawnmower and set of tools, etc. and be much better off with better gear. Obviously each house should have their own fundamental toolkit. But we're trained to consume, trained to be individuals rather than communities, and now we're addicted to our screens.

The problem with communism is that the party decides what is good for you and you better like it or else - and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Be the government or suffer the consequences. Communism may try to be fair in theory but is never fair in reality as subjective human judgementalism and favouritism always seeps in.

the powers that exist have convinced you that it is impossible to live in peace and that the only chance that you have is to sit around and complain and argue all day.

you are doing a great job.

Nonsense.
