Reading about FOSS philosophy, degoogling, becoming against corporations, and now a full-blown woke communist (like Linus Torvalds)

        Food insecurity and starvation? Brother I much prefer working 5 minutes for a loaf of bread rather than queueing half a day to hopefully get 2 slices

          I wonder what you think the motive behind colonialism and the transatlantic slave trade was.

            Colonialism - you mean a collectivist institution for the "social" and "communal" good (the state) - disrespecting others private property rights? nb. Private property is a principle of the Free Market. All private property rights are an extension of self ownership. To hell with slavery - which includes the collective slavery of Communism!

              So you don't know what communism is since you mentioned it needing a state. I guess Nazi Germany is communist because of the "collectivist" goal of the Nazi party to improve the "motherland." Wtf am I saying, you probably actually believe that.

                  Me when I ignore the numerous amounts of right wing genocidal dictators installed by western capitalist governments in other countries in the name of capitalism (I am using Black Book of Communism rhetoric, a book that included stagnating birth rates and death of Nazi figures in war to inflate my figures as I have no other argument of substance).

                Communism needs a state as shown by Socialism needing a state. Socialism being the path to (anarchist) Communism. A totalitarian state no less. Yes and the National SOCIALISTS were also collectivists (and Totalitarians) - correct. National Socialists and International Socialists were enemies as they were fighting for the same ideological ground. Many would in fact would switch sides.

                  Collectivist =/= Communist, I am tired or arguing with Red Scare Americans who do not understand what Communism even is, nor understand the fact that a government that implements mass privatisation that the Nazis put in place is the exact opposite of communism. Fuck me.
