    It’s not that I think it is impossible for communism to work, I just think playing around with economic systems isn’t worth the risk especially when most times it has failed

      My main problem with communism is that the communists really seem to love genocide. I’m sure some tankies are going to talk about how “oh it’s not really genocide because…” or “yeah but the West…” but in my opinion that makes them genocide apologists. We should be less authoritarian, not more.

      Let’s just toss the fossil fuel industry another trillion, let the people starve, and keep doing things as usual because how could it ever be any better?

      Both actual communism and actual libertarianism sound great on paper. In practice… not so much.
