    You know what else is amusing? I’m having a discussion with a communist in this very thread (a civil one with no namecalling) about why communism won’t work just based on specialized and trained labor alone. But that’s the typical sort of deceit that communists do, I suppose. Talk to people about the failings of communism.

        Well it’s true that I don’t have the ability to make the logical deduction that you either believe communes are fascist or you’re transphobic.

          You could’ve just kept on topic and we’d arrive at the logical conclusion that all communism is fascist. But for some reason you felt the need to stretch it out like this.

            You don’t want to be on topic, you want to be agreed with or else. And since I don’t agree that all communism is fascist, because I don’t believe that communes are fascist or transphobic (especially not this one)

            I’m almost certain you won’t check that link, or if you do, you’ll dismiss it as off-topic. Please prove me wrong.

              You don’t want to be on topic, you want to be agreed with or else.

              You wouldn’t even know that since you’ve derailed everything you’ve touched lmao.

              I’m almost certain you won’t check that link

              Oh I did. The folks living on the ranch don’t even claim to be communist;

              “Members of the Tenacious Unicorn Ranch were anarchists, leftists, and antifascists.[2][4] As of March 2020, the ranch had nine residents.[2”

              So yeah, again with the derail. You really can’t do anything but derail lmao

                Wait…

                What exactly do you think the ‘commun’ part of ‘communist’ means? Communes are the simplest form of communism.

                And if you agree with me that they aren’t inherently fascist or transphobic, then why am I a fascist and a transphobe but you aren’t?

                  Saakto here is either a troll or deranged, so I wouldn’t expect much. Check their post history, it’s interesting. They keep accusing people of derailing the conversation when they themselves are the only person doing the derailing. Then they get upset and accuse the other of being a fascist or a transphobe, sometimes both. It’s bizarre.

                    Yeah, it’s pretty weird. Although they don’t seem to be able to come up with a response to my last message to them. I was looking forward to an explanation of why I’m still a fascist transphobe when we’re in agreement. Oh well, I’ve got to get started with morning stuff anyway.
