Why Is The World Still Allowing Communism To Thrive .

The world stood up for Racism and Appartheid and is still standing for it today but they allow something far worse to fester and grow in a world that would be better off without it . Yes I am talking about communism and dictatorships that put down anyone that speaks out by murdering them openly and with no resistance from the rest of the world . Its not only happening in Russia but China and several african countries and the world stands back and allows it to happen . This is a disgrace and every government should hang its head in shame . When is the world gonna get together and wipe this evil from our world once and for all .

Communism is literally an anarchist philosophy.

@BohemianBoo The word 'literally' cannot be applied to an abstract idea.

@Really Communism is not that abstract. It's a society where there's no government and everyone shares the means of productions.
Now there are different schools of thought in regards to Communism and how to transition to a communist society, but the basic ideas are pretty clear.

@BohemianBoo Communism is a WORD. What it means in any given context is known only to the person using it, and very often not even to them. the only sense in which 'it' can be called literal is that it's literally a word.

@Really By that logic, all words mean nothing.

@BohemianBoo Words have meanings in the minds of those who use them, although they are often spoken by people who don't pause to think about that before uttering them. If the person hearing the word has a different 'take' on it, and they are unwilling jointly to explore their different interpretations, real communication & understanding are impossible. Sadly this is almost the norm.

I agree. Like, some people use "Communism" to mean anything they don't like.

Actual Communists use the agreed upon definition of the word, which refers to an anarchist society where the means of production are shared.
Russia and China are not communist, they're capitalist Dictatorships.
