    I think it’s a smart move actually. The right is really good at turning a good word/description into “pure evil.” They killed socialism so keep the dynamics and change the name.

    It’s like the morons that were asked if they liked Obamacare and if they liked the affordable care act. It’s the same thing but people said they hate Obamacare but liked the affordable care act… Right wing brainwashing at its finest…

      I feel like that’s the reason I tend to preach anarchism over communism in general and don’t doubt you’re right about the statistics and propaganda playing into perception but I can’t help but feel like here that comes off as rehabilating the image of capitalism. We can make a softer bed of knives or make one out of foam- I know which one I’m choosing
