    Typing it all in caps doesn’t make it not true. Words have meanings, Russia and China both have private corporations run for profit. They do have some socialist policies, but they certainly do not have economic systems characterized by the collective ownership of property and by the organization of labor for the common advantage of all members.

    If you keep having people tell you “those aren’t real communists”, then just maybe you should reevaluate your definition of Communism.

      And if you need to incorporate market economics everytime you try to form a utopia, maybe you should reevaluate your definition of Communism.

      Next you’re gonna tell me Trump actually won the election. By your logic it must be true, people keep repeating it after all.
