      I ask myself this often, but if they are at all reflective of boomer comics/fox news/OAN/etc... then I think they are mostly unironic, because at this point in America there are 3 kinds of communists:

      • Actual MLs
      • Anyone without an "R" next to their name who doesn't kowtow to Trump (according to conservatives)
      • Russia, specifically Putin, and any twitter user or high level Republican associated with "Russian collusion" (according to libs)

        Republicans: If you don't have a red R for Republican you're a commie traitor!

        Democrats: But also if you do have a red R for Russia you're a commie foreign agent!

        Elizabeth Warren: I believe in welfare, just corporate welfare. Do I get to be a commie guys?

        Biden: Listen fat, no one gets to be a commie on this ship. I met Gorbachev okay? I was there when they did that, that thing. And hey, then I went to Moldova because I wanted to know what that was all about. So keep it in your hat, Jack. You're all strawberries and no preserves. I'll take my shirt off and do push-ups right now, and then we'll see who's talking.

          Communism is when a few people hoard the products of your labor and only give you a small portion of that value.

          These morons will die for capitalism because they can't fucking read and have them mixed up.

            Super Capitalism is when you kill your boss and landlord and keep all of your hard-earned money

        Anyone without an “R” next to their name who doesn’t kowtow to Trump (according to conservatives)

        Actually they've been calling Republican like Mitch McConnell commies for accepting the election results

        I've confronted chuds on this one, demanding an answer for what communism is. More than once they've described democracy itself, i.e., when a majority will is expressed through a practice of social equity to make demands of society. My racist moron cousin literally described communism as "when idiots get together and think they know what they want, but trust someone else to get it for them" Yeah, ok, so all elected officials are communists.

          Heh yep

          It's even more skewed with anarchy, where people imagine violent chaos

      Some do, while the rest are kinda like us when we sniff a target that's open to learning and being educated -- playing the game. Radicalising people.
