It blows my mind the people who think, "after the revolution I'm going to be a dog walker and bake dog treats!" When in reality they will probably die in a labor camp.

Person who hasn't read a single book on communist theory explaining to the communists how they misunderstood what communism is.

I bet you think you'll be cross-stitching name tags for the party uniforms, right?

Maybe if communist theory wasn't actual fantasy more people would read it. I guess most people are more rooted in reality where communism is a shithole that doesn't work, and communists are people you have to put up with talking at you as if you cared.

Maybe not die in a labor camp, but they won't be doing what they expected to do, or even wanted to do.

If they don't have any particular skill, they'll probably end up being crop pickers or some shit because we really need those.

Basically very similar to capitalism, but they would probably have a better quality of life overall.
