Communism is not a totalitarian regime. The Marxist Leninists countries of the last century were totalitarian, but none of those countries achieved communism. Communism isna stateless, classless society of collective ownership of the means of production, the exact opposite of totalitarianism.@Radical_EgoCom@mastodon.social @appassionato@mastodon.social @bookstodon@a.gup.pe This is why we need to stick to this defintion. This helps get the opposition to stop with the hyperbolic defintions.
@Radical_EgoCom@mastodon.social @appassionato@mastodon.social @bookstodon@a.gup.pe Everytime I debate anti-communists they can never define “communism” without mentioning a statist country. Ffs, venezuela is not communist nor were any of these ML countries. Like wtf?
