The 1950s called, they want their cultural milieu back

and who do communists blame?

I think you'll find that communists tend to blame the systemic failures of capitalism on the capitalists

We just don't know, they all starved to death before we had a chance to ask them.

If by communists you mean the people promoting memes like this one, then whoever their dictator tells them to blame.

So you still live under the false dichotomy of the Red Scare and think everyone not wanting a hard capitalist dick up their ass must be kissing a dictator's ass instead.

This is roughly the level of reasoning a 5 year old would be happy to engage with.

Yes, clearly democracy needs to be dismantled to make all our lives better. /sarcasm

You mean conservatives right

[–] kurwa@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Conservatives want deregulation and to make everything private companies, which is capitalism. Democrats also vote for pro capitalist legislation that hurts people.

H.R.5376 - Inflation Reduction Act of 2022?

The one that taxed billion dollar companies to pay for expanding socialized healthcare and expanding public sector clean energy solutions and renewable fuels?

It really doesn't surprise me you consider that anti-communist. CCP advocates might as well think green means red and the sky is down.

You've mistaken this propaganda for a leftist meme, common misconception. The posters and upvoters aren't one of us. Not even real communists.

They mean westerners, because they want people who live in democracies who oppose their dictator to all die.
