    Maybe. But you clearly don’t understand it all that well.

      For what it’s worth, they evidently don’t understand more than you, considering a recurring assertion by them conflating the State with government in general, which is foundational for how Marxists understand Communism as a “stateless” society of full public ownership and a common plan.

      Understanding Marxism according to American 16 year olds online is repeating 100 year old Soviet propaganda, so I guess I don’t understand it well from that point of view.

        You have three things wrong there:

        1. I am not american
        2. I am not 16 years old
        3. Understanding Marxism is (partially, you also have to… well, understand it, if it makes no sense it hasn’t helped you all that much) reading Marxist theory

          Yeah, you’re a different kind of extremely online specimen, stalking cowbees account to white knight by posting random book citations.

          Very “too much free time” behavior ngl.
