You’re still pulling shit out of your arse - your proof that communists hate police is that some people (not communists, just some people) protested against police 4 years ago??? That had nothing to do with communism whatsoever. You clearly don’t understand that not all leftists are communists, and not all leftists are ACAB.
So you’ve decided that a ~200 year old economic system is actually about an unrelated movement that’s happened in the last decade.
COMMUNISM IS NOT ABOUT POLICING. It’s an economic system based on the abolition of private wealth.
It doesn’t say whether police are good, or when violence is appropriate.
“Communism is dumb because there is violence and communism doesn’t solve that violence”
Eating lunch doesn’t solve all violence either, but you still do it.
This is the shit that frustrates me to no end. I’m not even saying we should switch to a communist system. I’m saying we should put enough consideration into the economic concepts to pick out what works well and what doesn’t in a modern society.
But you’re so wrapped up in your personal imagination of what communists think that you’re entirely incapable of thinking about its propositions at all.
You realize that getting upset over this isn’t helping to prove your point, right? If anything, it proves you’re out of arguments and you think you can bully me into into accepting your point of view.
Sorry, not going to happen.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I thought Marx passionately and repeatedly made the case that violence and inequality in a capitalist system are intrinsically connected, i.e. that a capitalist system requires violence in order to enforce and maintain the inequality that is present. But you (and Marx) also say that communists can (and should) violence to bring about equality.
My question, therefore, is simply this: if inequality is the result of violence, how can communism ever hope to achieve equality in the future by using the same means that it claims causes inequality in the present? That’s simply fighting fire with fire. If their violence justifies our violence, our violence will justify theirs. And on and on it goes. No amount of violence will ever stop violence. It just won’t.
