You might want to turn that incredibly critical eye you've got for communism back in on capitalism, that's all.

I... am?

What is this, I am against dictatorial abominations, so that means I am in favor of capitalist abuse? I am literally saying that opposition to capitalism is shooting itself in the foot by tolerating the existence of authoritarian "communists".

Unless you're an actual tankie, your words towards me make no sense.

Misunderstanding on my end then, I made some clearly unfair assumptions. I agree with you there and apologize for the mischaracterization.
