            The one I sometimes hear from communists is that communism has never been achieved. Anyone else saying that shit is basically making up a guy to laugh at.

                I mean yeah, I guess that's my point. Real socialism (and thus communism) have been tried, unlike the dumb chud joke.

            when you point out to AES they’ll say they’re front capitalist countries lol

            "Okay, can we do some things from those 'capitalist' countries, then?"

            "No." :frothingfash:

            Trots, left-communists and some other anti-communist left do tend to parrot this line

      You can have an oligarchy that's not capitalist, though.

      You could even have non-oligarchic capitalism, briefly, before it inevitably morphs into that.
