What's shit about communists?

[–] philanthropicoctopus@thelemmy.club -3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I have no issue with communists. I'm in the anti capitalist camp myself.

I guess all I'm trying to say is idealising nations as utpoian is unrealistic and demonizig them as dystopian is equally as unfair.

There are obviously exceptions where governments do treat their citizens like trash. I don't like what America is doing at the moment. I try not to think in binaries generally, learning not to anyway

Communists don't idealize socialist countries, not are we utopians.
