Absolutely, but if the level of reading comprehension lowers, propaganda gets more effective and more is accidentally created.

I’m not a full on communist but a direct way to combat this is the Castro model, or the Mao model. Virtual 100% literacy. I’m well read and I’m still kinda dumb, speak like an idiot. That’s the American in me

Wait, it's very hard to be part Communist. Do you mean you like a lot of things in Socialism because that is another false equivalency out there. Communism and Socialism are NOT the same thing.

No im aware of the difference. I guess I mean I’m a future communist. That’s my end goal. There’s a whole lote of intermediary work to be done to get to that point. Which I guess is kinda the Marxist view anyway. He always saw liberal capitalism as a step towards communism.

Communism is an authoritarian form of Socialism. Why would that ever be ok?

Like, communism by definition is a stateless society, so how could that ever be authoritarian?

The authority is the party, it's officials who have absolute power and the people have none.

Because it’s not an authoritarian form of socialism and that is massive misconception. In fact, people usually come to that conclusion through propaganda, very seldom if they’re aware of the material context and have done the proper analysis.
