    So far every “attempt” at communism has resulted in some form of dictator, so it’s not surprising that the idea of communism leaves a sour taste for a lot of people.

    It really doesn’t help that there are communities that look at the Russian outcome of communism and claim that was a good result.

      Has anything ever been ok in any of these countries? Russia has always been a totalitarian shit hole, same with China. Communism is just a part of their shitty history of oppression and dictators.

        Not really, Russia went from an empire with kings /queens into a revolution into a “communjst” dictatorship.

        China was similar but I think had a step in the middle, hence the split with Taiwan.
