That's his own definition, not the official one.
Communism means (public) state control of the means of production and not only. Everything that empowers the state, inherently leads to dictatorship.
A form of common ownership without a state is not communism, so that is just propaganda with a smile.
Altruism has its limits. I do not call it fair when those smart and productive are working to keep the stupid and the lazy happy. I had socialist/communist views in my youth but I learned better. The hard way.

Long time no see...

I dropped by to see if you guys have any second thoughts about your former position during the 2020 US elections:

- do you still consider US leadership has no bearing upon EU politics, economy and life in general?
- still believe that we would have been here today regardless of Trump president or not?
- clear now that he made no money as president, but actually lost a lot?
- are you happy with the outcome?
- do you think that your attacks on Trump and maybe influencing some people to think the same, bear the right fruits?

Not sure if you remember or not, but my prediction was that we would be at war within one year is Trump fails.
I admit my prediction was off by one year.

Zambeezi,
Thank you for posting that.
With regards to Yemen bill, yes - you're right, but that doesn't mean that it wasn't in the US economy interest at that time given their relations with Saudi Arabia.
Nobody ever said that Trump was any kind of saint or savior. Just that it would have been better option than the only other alternative - the one we have today.

For Bohse Tante, regarding the "straw man" argument:
In the content of the link Zambeezi posted above, the replies still visible from shachalnur are quite clear on the view that EU and the rest of the world doesn't really care about what is happening in US. And he was not alone in that view.

The fact that for sane people it is not interesting which asshole does what in the USA has nothing to do with the fact that the hegemony of the USA must be ended. Only a Transatlantic with megalomania can come up with such ideas. Stop taking yourself for so important, rather get used to get rid of your exceptionalism, your arrogance and your dreams of world domination. With this, you have a lot of work from your current mindset to adjust to a way of thinking that is somewhat adapted to the new situation. 

Same old, same old...
Again, you start attacking me personally without the slightest attempt to debate anything.
You do not know anything about me but you publicly decide the worst - "Transatlantic with megalomania"... "your arrogance"..."your dreams of domination"... " need a lot of work to adjust my way of thinking".

What did I say to deserve this?
Did I address you personally in any inappropriate way? I only asked you to check shachalnur statements from a couple years back that justified my first question. Was that something out of line?

In fact, I'm nothing of the sort you're describing.
In fact, I'm born, raised and educated in Eastern Europe. I lived 22 years under "socialism" so I know all its goods and bads.
I now live in NA for the past 22 years travelling very often back to EU, where I presently am.
So, I'm not quite the stupid and uneducated moron that you're implying.

Is this some sort of policy here to push all new users away?

At first I wasn't intended to reply at all. I don't like to repeat myself over and over again. Nevertheless, I changed my mind so I will put some lines here.

At first, "US leadership" is fully owned by unelected cabal, the same one which owns so-called EU.

“Behind the ostensible government sits enthroned an invisible government owing no allegiance and acknowledging no responsibility to the people."

What's going on is not work of so-called "US leadership", that is, in fact non-existent, as is US independance or freedom. Useful idiots, as Trump or Biden, are nothing but tools.

Trump was not meant as two term president so thinking about "would we be here if Trump won 2nd term" is quite delusional. He did his part, poured more troops to Europe, discredited globalist opposition, killed most important people for fight against globalist irregulars known as ISIS, commited numerous agressions against Syria and even started occupation of 1/3 of it's territory. And than he was dumped. No use for him anymore.

Am I happy with the outcome? What does this even mean? Outcome was predictable since 2000 when Russia refused to bow to the globalist satanic agenda. I'm surprised it took so long, actually. I expected Russia will act after 2014's coup. Am I happy that NATO and globalists being opposed, deconstructed? Yes, I am. There was no other option anyway. Am I happy with unnecessary battle between Slavic brothers? Hell no. What a shame. We fight each other, meanwhile real enemy sits far away from frontlines, gahters in Davos or plotts in Brussels...

"Attacks on Turmp" - if you see thruth spoken out as an attack then it's your problem. Truth should be told. And truth is that Trump was a tool. Whitewashed Saudistan, attacked secular Syria. Helped headchoppers and stirred shit in Venezuela. And much more. As support for MEK etc. All of this should be known and none of this is an attack. Just facts...

The point was that it would not have been the war in Ukraine with Trump in power, no economy crash or a sudden drop in life quality in EU and NA. This is where I and most of people on this forum live and care about.
Now, there isn't even someone in the West that Russia could negotiate with. The west governments (US included) are intentionally hurting their own population in a sado-masochistic way.

It was a simple question - about a choice between two possible outcomes, none of them good. In my opinion, we obviously got the worse.
This was not about a world change, or some sort of revolution to topple tptb - that was never in the cards and it's not in the cards today either.
Despite the obvious, the vast majority of the general population in EU and NA is still following the narrative being fed by msm and the puppet governments.
Curiously, even more in EU, which is suffering more deeply than NA.

The point was that it would not have been the war in Ukraine with Trump in power,

probably, but Syria would be a lot more active. there would be war in Syria....

no economy crash or a sudden drop in life quality in EU and NA.

economic crash was mathematical inevitability. and economic crash started before COVID-19 lock downs. COVID thing was started because economy was crashing.

Now, there isn't even someone in the West that Russia could negotiate with. The west governments (US included) are intentionally hurting their own population in a sado-masochistic way.

because economy is disintegrating. not because (((they))) want to.

difference would be:

there would be war in Syria (not Ukraine). COVID lock downs would be implemented. and more or less all would be the same. with or without trump. US presidents are not that important. they can deviate from the script (a little) but not very much.
