    Where is that “it’s real communism if” flowchart with the “do the workers own the means of production” test? It’s needed here.

      So, passing a semantics test is what’s needed to call oneself communist and to try to improve the lives of everyone?

        “People owning the means of production” versus “the State owning everything and dictating the life of everybody” is a semantics test now?

          I’d rather have a democratic state controlling the means of production for the most part than anarchosyndicalism. You don’t see me crying abour “anarkiddies” in every post minimally related to leftism. Turn off the red scare brain, we have literal fascists in our governments.

            Running fully into fan-fiction territory, isn’t you?

            When you find one of those that is also democratic, yeah, we can discuss the details.
