Listen here, kulak...

Haha, funny way to say "working in the lead mines", comrade.

What is it with these commie types that they believe communism will leave everyone to become hippies who can do whatever they want and all required resources just magically arrive when they need.

It really is watching children believe in Santa Claus

When you own the means of production it's literally yours. I don't understand the issue.

I mean technically, you could have a farm if you worked the entire farm by yourself (personal vs private property).

I too want a post-scarcity luxury space communism utopia. Unfortunately most iterations of communism feel more like rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic than actually plugging the hole in the fuselage.

...until the central committee decides that more coal miners are required.

Dude why do people think communism means you can't own anything. There's a difference between private and personal properties. You can own a house, and a car, hell even a whole farm. What you cannot do is hold capital.

I've never understood how this is supposed to be some big own to communism. You'd still refer to it as "my farm," even as I refer to the community where I live as "my city" and the jobs I've worked to benefit some capitalist bozo as "my job." This is even worse than Ben Shapiro popping out of a well. In many ways, I think I'd feel more ownership as part of a community vs. the facade of "private property."

It’s my farm too. We all own farm. Back to work comrade.

Arguments about the definitions of Communism or Property aside - yes, my farm. As in, the one I work on. The possessive pronoun, despite the name, sometimes connotes association rather than ownership - I do not own my school, my country, my street or (despite what Republicans might wish) my wife.

It's always cartoon pfp users the most delusional.

For those interested, Dessalines' "what would be X like under communism" is a helpful aggregated of discussions regarding this: https://dessalines.github.io/essays/socialism_faq.html#what-would-x-be-like-under-communism

Socialism vs communism be like

No. You'll probably be assigned a job that's required to be done for the good of society.

Just as communism has been proven to fail in the past so is capitalism. It has been warped to something terrible for the common worker. I think this communism thing is just a way for people to vent their frustrations with the current system. Honestly as long as their is a corruptible person in charge no system will work as intended. And unfortunately everyone is corruptible.

am i going mad, or are the letters slightly wobbly in this screenshot?

Guys, it's a joke.

Communists are like the left equivalent of libertarians? Both absolute morons.

End goal; you will own nothing, and you'll be happy. Also work harder and don't advance.
