you know how people, especially on twitter, try and share their absolute dogshit takes without a care for humility, just unbribled stubbornness

everybody seem so full of themselves and I just can't bring myself to trust anyone unless they show a hint of doubt over their own thoughts, and that's flat out absent from most social media

idk, I don't think I did a good jb describing what I feel, it's hard to accurately put into words

but like, do you have stuff you usually keep to yourself, because like you know the thought isn't well rounded or something and you don't want to say something incorrect. or like interrogations about stuff you can't really answer by yourself

    Like you think the whole leftist idea of communism could come into fruition but be an impermanent thing or like you think there would be a different thing that people would symbolically call communism out of pattern association?

        But how can the endgoal of communism have any contradictions if it is, at least in theory, the ultimate system? That's what boggles the mind, like the very concept of it just seems so utopian that if it had any contradictions then it wouldn't be real communism, it would have to be something else.

            OK, so I will ask questions and see if I get a better understanding of it.

            Communism is not the ultimate system nor an end goal, just a possible next step.

            It seems to me that if a communist society is classless and the moving force of history is class conflict, then communism does mean the end of history.

            New contradictions will always appear when old ones wither.

            It is my understanding that contradictions arise from class conflict and that a communist society is classless and therefore cannot have contradictions. Like in your example, the contradictions arise from the conflict between two classes of masters and slaves, sharecroppers and plantation owners, segregated whites and blacks. In communism you're not gonna have that so you're not gonna have contradictions. Is this a misunderstanding?
