Anyone who can use a hammer and sickle as a symbol of anything but oppression and mass-murder by a Totalitarian government in 2017 has really got to let go of their dorm room fantasies.

The people who romanticize communism today all seem to live in capitalist societies, as opposed to China,Cuba,Laos or North Korea. I know, ‘it’s never been done right.’ Well, no system will ever be done perfectly. But when capitalism fails you get bread lines; when Marxism fails, you get gulags and mass starvation.
