people can't grasp the concept of scale. while communism might seem like a good idea, it can only work in a bounded context — family / small community. you can't scale a family. please, for the love of anything that is dear to you, stop people from pushing communism on a large scale. it just doesn't work. we got rid of it 30 years ago and the bad smell still lingers.

That’s because some clever communists rebranded the term to “post-modernism” and made it a new religion. This is not the same kind of communism we got rid of 35 years ago. It got upgraded and it took them 70 years to do it on such scale. Marx → Frankfurt School → COMINTERN → UN/WEF/EU

The difference now, with communism and fascism being two sides of the same authoritarian coin, is that this neo-marxists approach is being weaponized against us: DEI/woke → cultural marxism ESG → corporate fascism Overregulation → state fascism
