Communism is a form of slavery where the state owns the people. Anyone who supports communism supports slavery. Are you a supporter of slavery Meade? For some sweet bed time reading check-out the history of the great leap forward in communist China. Please pay special attention to the peasant slaves' terror of the communist party and how they melted down and destroyed the farm tools they needed to make a living to make the great leader happy.
You mind telling me just which one of your daffy dictionaries defines it that way?  "Big Words for Small Minds", perhaps?
Or is this just another one of those "Someone right-winger on Fox News said it, I believe it, and that settles it" sort of thing?

For the record:
com·mu·nism:   a political theory derived from Karl Marx, advocating class war and leading to a society in which all property is publicly owned and each person works and is paid according to their abilities and needs.
———————————————
(definition from Oxford Languages, part of the University of Oxford...  which I believe most people with two or more brain cells to rub together would consider a reputable and authoritative source)

And that "advocating class war" phrase ... sounds like it was lifted, each and every letter, right from the Trump/Repugnicunt playbook, doesn't it?

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

Advocating class war is central to marx’s arguments.
Okay... There's all kinds of things wrong with what you just said.

Class war is the perpetual state of capitalism; It is a brutal and endless war on labor to keep wages down and profits up. Marx's argument was that working people should actually defend themselves in this war, rather than acquiescing to wage slavery and exploitation that only serves to enrich the capitalist class.
GAH!
