    In what communist nation are there free elections?

    I don’t understand this mental gymnastics.

    You’re talking about the benefits of socialism while advocating for communism but my questions have been about communism.

    In what communist nation do you have free elections?

    In what communist nation do the people actually choose their leadership, instead of a “elite (but remember communism is supposed to be classless…) group that elects the leaders”?

    Communism is a novel idea BUT it hasn’t done a very good job demonstrating its benefits to the world. That’s the unfortunate reality of the situation.

      All of them practice democracy. What do you mean by “free?” Is that a vibe, where if Socialist = false, Capitalist = true?

        I’m not talking about socialism.

        I’m talking about communism.

        This post is about communism.

        You’re advocating for communism.

        The terms are not interchangeable.

          You are talking about Socialism, Communism is the status after Socialism. “Communism” as a status hasn’t been achieved, as it must be global, so we are talking about Socialism, and Marxism, the path to build Communism.
