Communists love to wear working class struggle as a disguise. They aren't working class and once they get power they use and abuse them just like every other rich cunt.

    This is nonsense. Communists seek collectivization of production and distribution to satisfy the needs of all, and when communists take power the first things they do is implement measures like land reform, literacy campaigns, and expropriate property from landlords and capitalists to better serve the interests of the people.

    First thing they do is strip rights away from people. Second thing they do is start erasing history. Third is increasing police forces to crack down on any dissent.

    Communists serve the communist party not the people.

    Again, untrue. In Russia, for example, life expectancies doubled, literacy rates went from 20-30% to full literacy, working hours dropped while real wages rose, healthcare and education were free and high quality, the economy was democratized and the country went from a feudal backward to space in less than a century, beating the Nazis along the way.

    They dramatically expand rights, teach history, and cracked down on the fascists, capitalists, and landlords.

    Ah yes, those are all countries known for respecting freedom and human rights. Those examples like russia completely prove my point.
