    It’s kind of stupid though, most sane people know communism hasn’t exactly provided the pinnacle of human existence.

    It feels less like a smart comic and more like a propaganda comic; “like communism if you are a smart free thinker”.

      You’re the “Communism is bad” guy. In the lower panels.

      The thought that communism has been established in USSR, China, Cuba, etc. and has proven to be horrible for human florishing is the propaganda.

        Then show me a place where it worked. Oh there isn’t…

        I prefer our social democracy.

          Then show me a place where it worked.

          Define “worked”. 1930s Catalonia had a good run. So did anarchist Ukraine. Also: about the majority of the time humanity existed “worked” without private property, money and modern nation states.

          I prefer our social democracy.

          “Your” social democracy is most likely currently in the process of giving power to fascists (depends on where you live, exactly. But all of Europe for example is pretty much the boiling frog meme of turning fascist.), or preparing to start WW3.

          As I said: full of propaganda.
