    It blows my mind the people who think, “after the revolution I’m going to be a dog walker and bake dog treats!” When in reality they will probably die in a labor camp.

      Person who hasn’t read a single book on communist theory explaining to the communists how they misunderstood what communism is.

        Maybe if communist theory wasn’t actual fantasy more people would read it. I guess most people are more rooted in reality where communism is a shithole that doesn’t work, and communists are people you have to put up with talking at you as if you cared.

        Is that how you plan on getting people to subscribe to your ideology?

        Do you think Christian missionaries go to a non- Christian areas and are like “Read the bible all the way through or don’t talk to me”?

          People who don’t know the first thing about Christianity also shouldn’t be telling the Christians they’ve misunderstood Christianity.

      Maybe not die in a labor camp, but they won’t be doing what they expected to do, or even wanted to do.

      If they don’t have any particular skill, they’ll probably end up being crop pickers or some shit because we really need those.
