@CobaltVelvet For the same reason I don't like nazis.

@vagnes ah you see i am quite communist. except unlike nazis i don't advocate for exterminating any group, and of course i'm not stalin and don't believe dictatorship is a solution. much the opposite, my political ideas are around equality and prioritizing cooperation and sharing among humanity. then why exactly, if not a common but grave misconception of the core ideas of communism?

@CobaltVelvet Your freedom stops where others' begin.

@vagnes that's a catchphrase, not an answer :p
and not on point either.

how do communists violate this concept? whatever you want to say, think first: do communists believe in that? it is directly related to communism? or it is exclusively used by one historical dictator, and thus not related to communism itself?

otherwise what exactly? you can say you don't know much about it and believed the propaganda, many people do.
