    Cause North American kids only think they know what that is but they don’t.

    So it’s not a classless society? Also not an American kid btw

    Communism in it’s ideal form is impossible… It requires humans to be selfless and share equally. That is not human nature and will never ever happen.

    Funny you say that when humans since their very existence cared for their disabled/elderly and formed social relationships trough gifts and gratitude and not for monetary gain.

    In fact, lonelyness and the pain associated with it are a protective mechanism, as people were much less likely to survive alone outside the group:

    Our ‘human nature’ is to not be an egotistical asshole as that leads to social isolation

    It’s actually Capitalism that promotes egotistical and psychopathic behaviour, because you are competing against everyone in order to someday be more wealthy than someone else. Statements like this are bourgeois propaganda to preserve the status quo.

    So I’ve actually lived under a communist regime and it was no different than a fascist one. So I dunno what the hell you kids think a communist country looks like.

    Actually Communist/Socialist, for a start. With strong democratic institutions.

    Dictatorships will always try to preserve their power at the expense of anything else.

    You have this weird utopian ideal that is never ever going to happen

    Better to have an ideal and fight for a better future than being a defeatist geriatric. Or what do you propose as an alternative?
