    They are not really commies. But I’d guess you know that.

    Edit: In case it’s not clear, I strenuously object to the use of “commie” as a pejorative, particularly when it makes no sense whatsoever.

          They mask at leftist, but if you connect the dots they exclusively pipe up for trump and authoritarian countries like Russia, Iran or China

            If everything is shared under communism, that would include political power. That makes communism (IMO) a direct democracy. Does that sounds like those countries to you?

          They claim to be communist in some cases. Socialist is also a sort of blanket term which “means something” which - is somehow different from what others know it as. And “liberal” is an insult, so. They’re very confident they’re “left” of all creation, and any real-world effort to help people through existing national political structures is obviously corrupt and unworthy of examination.

          Does that help?

        Have you ever tried asking?

        The term you’re looking for is Marxist-Leninist. It is by far the largest communist ideology in the world.
