No I don’t think it’s my job to tell you genocides happen.

We’re not discussing your job, so don’t try to change the subject to what wretched drudgery you do for a living. None of this is done for employment, so that is an absurd point to make. But you have already taken it upon yourself to try and prove your points to me - but you are failing. Saying that you are not employed to succeed does not fill me with much hope that you are able to succeed at all.

The authoritarian part of it

There is not a single authoritarian part of communism. Finally we get to prove how little you know.

For the first thing, communism is stateless - that is, there is no state apparatus whatsoever. No need for it.

Secondly, communism is classless. There are no elites and peasants, everyone is simply a person and worker - of whichever stripe of work they desire to do that moment.

You know, the same part that causes genocides with fascism too.

Fascism causes genocides because it is an ethno-nationalist ideology, that inherently classes anyone but the chosen group as undesirable and worthy of death. There is nothing even resembling this in communist ideology, even the distaste toward capitalists doesn’t even come close to the pure hatred fascism feels toward anyone not of the right race, sex, or nationality.

I dare you to provide me a single quote from any communist theorist that calls for an extermination of any kind whatsoever.

Also, as we’ve seen, reality, as in, in reality we see communist regimes committing genocides

You have yet to even name one. In fact, you have yet to even name a “communist regime”, as such a thing is an oxymoron. You may find me regimes that call themselves socialist, and these regimes may even be led by a party that calls itself socialist, but you’ll struggle to find anything resembling communism because no country has been allowed to even progress into socialism, let alone progress along socialism toward communism.

I know we’re still working on the “reality” part with you so take your time trying to understand that reality exists.

Dude, this line of argument is so patently fucking bonkers. Let me show you why.


2 + 2 = 4.

Why?

Reality.


Harry Potter’s mother’s name is Lily.

How do you know that? Where is that information?

Reality.


Cows eat grass.

Who told you that?

Reality.


Are you following yet? Reality is the total sum of knowledge. It is the least specific possible way to try to prove a point. It is basically saying “trust me, bro.” You cannot say you are right by just appealing to the vagueness that is “reality”. You have to actually use reason.
