I honestly wonder where the hate for communism comes from. Yes, the stereotypical historical examples were disasters. But as others here have mentioned, the problems in these systems were not rooted in a communist economical system (which there also wasn't really). And assuming educated people should be able to differentiate between these I can only suspect the capitalism-blue-pill.

And to illustrate further I'd like to quote my very wise and definetely NOT communist literature teacher: In heaven there's communism. I think that dums it up nicely. If you sant to hate something, don't hate the idea, it in itself is pure and you're making a fool of yourself if you didn't wish for it in a perfect world. Hate the realisations? Maybe, but also noone seriously tried yet...

But if one just hates on it for the sake of having an "enemy" in turn validating the system oneself is a part of, that's just a lack of reflection and critical thinking. Capitalism does not work and we'd see it everywhere we look if we wanted to. We just can't imagine any other system anymore and that is the trap our society has fallen into. Blind religious belief in a economical system (ridiculous by itself, I might add). Let's atleast try alternatives or compromises before we finish burning down our planet.

Also: I love democracy, fix democracy first. Priority number one.

Thank you for coming to my tedtalk

Agreed. Most if not all democracies today are severely flawed. I'd also argue that the wall depicted here has more to do with these flaws than with democracy

Okay, quick question: In your meme, would you say the picture description on the right is something advocating for democracy? (Although democracy in of itself has basically nothing to do with that wall imo)

Ah yes, communism and democracy, directly comparable and not at all describing totally different things in different categories
