    I discovered you can score extra points where you deconstruct their argument to the point where they’ll call you a “debate pervert” and ragequit the fediverse

    Thing is, they’ll have so much unread communist literature around their home they’re bound to come back. Much easier to jump back into the bearbubble than read those big, big books

      You don’t even need the big big books. All you need is both Marx and Engels to knock their bad understanding out of them.

      My favorite cope that they invoke is that Lenin and Stalin’s communism wasn’t real communism. My tankie, according to Engels, they actually followed the “state capitalism” scenario to the letter, by having the state hold monopoly over the means of production, planning themselves like a corporation and owning the markets, the only difference being that the soviet states did not run on profit.
