Communism is better than Capitalism.

You said some bad things about communist governments, like state officials being rich or exterminating political opponents. Let's clarify for a moment that communism does not support these horrible acts. Rich people in a communist society are not communists and murder cannot be justified in any way. It is sad that there are governments that resorted to unethical practices. They shouldn't have done that. Their actions defeat the purpose of communism. And not only that, but they give such a bad name to the ideology. They give reason to every populist in the USA and elsewhere to rub the bad things of communism in our faces and discourage us from seeking it. For that, I cannot forgive them. All this isn't to say, however, that people in capitalist societies are saints. I would even say the degree of stealing is higher in capitalist societies than communist societies. And if you consider the legalized right to be able to make profit, it gets even higher. P.S. Profit isn't something bad. It's just that when a businessman makes profit it belongs to him, whereas when a public sector/business makes profit it belongs to the people. Who are you going to trust with wealth, he who has no morals (in theory and in most times in practice) or he who has? In the governments you mentioned, you forgot to include Cuba. I can see why. After all, it is not famed for its killings or inequality. The first positive thing that comes to my mind is the quality of healthcare there. As a matter of fact, its healthcare is better than the USA's(1). This would make health sector privatization advocates furious. Too bad they have so much money that they can just bury news concerning the subject. This brings me to my next point. Economical freedom creates economical inequality. As I said before, nothing stops the big fish from eating the small. In turn, economical inequality creates social inequality. Social inequality creates hunger or, in extreme cases, death. It is immoral to seek social inequality. As such, it is also immoral to seek economical freedom. People that seek economical freedom are plain greedy. Stop being greedy. Not only is it not worth it, but you are also hurting the people around you. Concerning political orientation, people's decisions are not very rational. I could talk to them about how communism means a better life for you, the worker, and they won't even listen. If communism is the ideology of the citizens, the many, and capitalism of the businessmen, the few, communism should be the favored ideology in elections, since it represents more people. But are communist parties voted for government? No. Communism makes good arguments, capitalism doesn't. I have made many arguments here. I'd like to think they make sense. I would also like to think I swayed the opinion of many. Why, though, did I not sway the opinion of some? Well, there is the theory of "following the group", the theory that we agree with others just to have them as friends. Additionally, people might be afraid of losing the few things capitalism gives them. But is the false security capitalism offers enough of a reason to support it? Also, are you forgetting the negatives of it, such as a life full of anxiety? Either way, you have to realize that by supporting capitalism you are doing a disservice to yourself. Concerning elections, in an ideal world, there are no elections. The government is a communist government, because communism makes sense. The government is not a capitalist government because capitalism doesn't make sense. That government does its best to serve the people and, if they made mistakes, admit that they did, fix them and move on. This, however, is not an ideal world, is it? Well, that doesn't mean we can't aim for one that is. Support and vote for communist parties. Endorse communism today. Thank you. (1) https://www.huffingtonpost.com... https://www.brightonsbm.com...
