A quick definition of communism:

Communism is a political idea that says everyone should share everything equally. This means that no one person or group should own more things than anyone else. In a communist society, everyone works together to make things and everyone gets what they need. This is different from capitalism, where some people can own a lot of things and others don't have much. Sometimes, communism can lead to a government that has too much power and controls everything, which is not good.

A more thorough explanation:

Communism is a political and social doctrine that aims to abolish capitalism and establish a society where everyone contributes according to their ability and receives according to their needs. It is based on the ideas of Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels.

Under communism, there is no private ownership of property or means of production. Instead, everything is owned collectively by the people. The government controls the economy and distributes resources and goods equally among the population.

However, communism has often been associated with totalitarianism, where the government has complete control over all aspects of people's lives. This has led to human rights abuses and lack of individual freedoms.

Examples of communist countries include the former Soviet Union, China, Cuba, and North Korea. In these countries, the government controls all aspects of the economy and society, and individual freedoms are severely restricted.

Overall, communism is a political and social doctrine that seeks to create a classless society where everyone is equal and resources are distributed fairly. However, its implementation has often led to totalitarianism and human rights abuses.

I mean, idk how it's possible to end birth right citizenship without amending the constitution because to me the 14th amendment is pretty clear about it.
ross ulbricht tried to hire a hitman to kill 5 people
i am not that sympathetic to him

@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: That might have been an FBI agent. It was most likely him and he was most likely doing it to retrieve stolen funds that corrupt FBI agents stole, but yeah moral gray area but me personally, cool with hitmen. It's not like it is uncommon to hire hitmen. I don't think the action itself is necessarily wrong but the intent behind it can be.

Like, Boeing whistblowers being killed by hitmen = wrong but a guy hiring hitmen to retrieve stolen funds = good to me.

@Dkk: Yeah, for sure. My guess is it'll go to SCOTUS and it'll be 8-1 or 7-2, saying that EO was unconstitutional.
