Eh, communists on Lemmy are the "Russia and China are great" kind of communists.

What they call communism I call crony capitalism with a sprinkle of feudalism, aka the only ones that actually count are the very rich extremely well connected people appointed by the supreme ruler, everyone else counts for less than zero.

TBH America seems less of a capitalist hellscape than either of those countries, which is saying something...
