I'm sorry I must have missed the part of Karl Marx's writings where he said all peasants must be herded into death camps?

But that's even besides the point. Communism is a complete paradigm change and very few people are asking for that. Universal Education, Healthcare, and Income are compatible with well regulated market systems. Yeah there's tankies that want a centrally planned economy run by an authoritarian figure, and there's anarchists who want everyone to slot into a commune with no higher level of governance, (thus, Communism). But calling social reforms Communism is a bad faith argument and disinformation. Don't be that guy.
