    Are you a communist? Since apparently us “few loud idiots” are wrong, what’s the opinion of the majority of communists?

      That the means of production should be controlled by all the people equally and that those people should be able to freely form their opinion and discuss those opinions in public so the better argument may win.

      EDIT: And for the question of me being a communist, I would self describe as Marxist, which in my mind is nearly identical to being a communist, but since stalinist and other class traitors also claim that label I tend to use Marxist.

        Communists aren’t really supporters of the “marketplace of ideas” theory, but the question asked was what opinion do communists have on the Russo-Ukrainian war?

        Yeah, the downvotes on this comment tell a lot about this community. Either you are just Russian bots, or you haven’t understand that a boot you lick is a boot you lick, no matter who wears that boot
