        No. Cause North American kids only think they know what that is but they don’t. 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. Now I grew up under a communist regime who raped, pillaged and burned their way to the capital before taking power and becoming just as corrupt and greedy as the previous government.

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

          Well, older people telling kids what are the limitations on how the world can change is not new and has shown historically to be of little epistemological value.
