So your argument is "NO YOU!!"?

Many small collectives in the US adopt communist values, like Menenites, Mormons or Amish.

My proof is that, despite the overall majority of social media users stating that communism is the way, it hasn't been adopted country wide because the actual majority of people don't want it, aka a difference in ideology, aka non homogeneous population.

So saying that every single person in the USA that doesn't subscribe to the same ideology based on their own personal experiences and surroundings isn't just a personal political identity, it's racism?

Says historical accounts of communism being "gently forced" onto a non homogeneous population.

I see that you are just one of those people that thinks everything is tied to race. Saying a population is non homogeneous is not racist. You are putting that spin on it based on your own preconceived ideas.

I had to pull the trigger based on price. I knew there was no way I would be able to get in on the MSRP level of the new cards. Too many scalpers.

Ok, I misspoke.

Sure, Communism can work at small scales where there is a culturally homogeneous population. Which is why cities and municipalities have the freedom to adopt communist ideals.

The USA in total is far too large and diverse to make it work country wide. We are, by design, neither culturally, politically, or geographically homogeneous.

It would take an all powerful small ruling class forcing compliance in order to make it work on such a large scale. Now we are back to Totalitarianism operating under the guise of "the good of the people!!"

Even at the small scale, we have examples of this not working. CHAZ/CHOP were taken over by opportunists that wanted to benefit themselves at the expense of all others in the community. There is simply too much diversity of thought in the USA to make it work.

TikTok. Yet people are begging for someone to spy on them if it means feeding their addiction to short form content.

"We've never seen REAL Communism!!"

That line is older and more tired than my 92 year old uncle.

And it's not true?

Please tell me how what I posted was worthy of being deleted by mods. I didn't say anything that wasn't true.

But that's not the issue, right? "You can just look it up!"

How many people go looking up mod logs? They know exactly what they are doing: stifling speech that they don't agree with.

Don't like someone telling the truth? BANNED!!

You remember blocking me? 😍

I don't think about you at all. Just happened upon a living stereotype and felt compelled to point it out.

Good luck with those neurosis and narcissism. So weird those traits only ever seem to affect the self proclaimed "best" IT stooges.

I don't know about the devil, but some doomsday prepper edgelord keeps popping up.

Hot damn!!

All you "eat the rich" people might just force yourselves into actually living the anti-corporation lifestyle you claim to want instead of just larping. A couple more companies come out in support of making changes under a Republican president and you might just swear off all products!

Of course, Apple has already donated to the inauguration and you haven't got rid of your iPhones yet, and many of you are willing to give away your information to China and slurp down their white hot propaganda with no issue (RedNote), so I guess your addiction to these products is greater than your convictions.
