They don't have a dang clue what Communism is. They have been so privileged and been given everything in their life but discipline since they came out of their momma. Communism is a one way street., Once it starts you can't turn it around. When they have to stand in line for rations or toilet paper let's see where it goes from there. I have very wealthy cousin who is probably MENSA but has no life sense. I told her in a conversation once that we would take all of her retirement, savings, and current paycheck and divide it up among the poorest in her county evenly and she would get a cut of it even with the rest. She said that wan't fair and that she worked hard for her savings and lifestyle. I said that is exactly what communism and or socialism is. She argued for a while and we just decided to let it go at that. They don't understand the mechanics of it...they just understand the romanticism of it.

It is more that they have been indoctrinated into a romanticized version of Communism that wipes away all the evil inherent in it, and transfers it to Capitalism... My 2 cents at least, but what do I know, I 've only been around the world, and have a Master's Degree in Political Science and International Relations...

I would have to guess that Communism sounded pretty good when the original idea was spawned! The problem seems to be that humanity was given a brain that was allowed to decide! That ability have rise to the belief in some that a few were "more equal" than others! He be you have a shift from true Communisim to today's result in many countries. Millennial have not experienced that kind of "equality", and therefore will understand the full consequence u too it is too late -- very like a "butterbar" coming onto a raging battlefield!!

Communist have always believed that they would succeed if only they kill enough people. 100 million dead cry out for vengence.
