what are your thoughts on communism

from the little i know, see and have learned, it is an evil ideology and should be vanquished forever...i don't live in a communist country but in the countries which do have it i think the people should be set free from it, as it is evil and has no place on earth.

As an ideology, communism currently has the LARGEST body count. More people were MURDERED in Communist regimes than any other.

Communism is only helpful in brand new, or developing countries. For established nations, it is a disaster.

@darkmere1983 Well, I do tend to agree with you. But I did have a boyfriend from Pakistan, when I was 13 years old, and it was he who told me that it can be good for developing nations.

@4meAndyou How does communism help a developing country? How does class warfare, the abolition of private property and ZERO human rights help a developing country ?

@Reason10 I was 13 years old when he said that to me, and I was very shallow, in addition to being young...so I never asked him to defend his statement.

@Diotrephes @Diotrephes Actually, (if you are referring to Karl Marx) his family was considered non religious Jewish, but they converted to Christianity.

Here's another perspective =
Karl Marx and Materialistic Messianism
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 10 January 2023

"Karl Marx has long been held up as the archetypal self-hating Jew. On the one hand, Marx's family was (before his father's conversion) very Jewish. Both his father and mother's sides included many rabbis going back generations. On the other hand, Marx was baptized at the age of six, received no Jewish education and is infamous for quotations such as “What is the worldly religion of the Jew? Huckstering. What is his worldly God? Money.” Marx's contempt for Jews could not be clearer. Yet, despite this, we argue here that Karl Marx ought to be considered a Jewish thinker."

He's still the SOB that caused over a century of the world's problems.
