Only a Twitter leftist can defend a statue of Lenin by appealing to property rights

@matrix up next. mao and his benevolent property managers association

@matrix even in communism personal property is ok, the problem is private property (property used to produce goods)

@tuxcrafting
I know, but that's distinction is purely arbitrary. Personal property can easily become private.

@matrix basically just a fancy way of saying seize the farms and factories but you can leave the rest alone

@tuxcrafting @matrix government bureaucrats know best. certainly the only reason the quotas are not being fulfilled is party disloyalty! 50 years hard labor

@tuxcrafting @matrix@gameliberty.club Very dumb IMO to use such ambiguous terms though. French researcher Bernard Friot uses “lucrative property” and everyone understands immediatly what that means.

@matrix He didn't own slaves? That fucker helped to enslave whole fucking countries to the "good of many over the few."

We could actually learn from Lenin and Communism, now that I really consider it. Who are the many? Who are the few? Interesting.

He also used the concept of concentration camps long before Hitler, and the "Red Terror" could definitely give the brownshirts a run for their money.

Ask a Ukrainian what you should do to a statue of Lenin.

@Moon
A lot of statues of abolitionists and generally for their time progressive people were vandalized because they didn't fit the modern image of a far left saint.

@Moon @matrix it's weird how generals of the defeated side even got any statues in the first place

@matrix he didn't own slaves he just approved of ideological genocides. like these people do. :blobcatfingerguns:
@icedquinn @matrix

all these people pretending they don't collectively don't own slaves through the prison system.
@death @matrix haven't you heard? prison is just for business owners trying to work when globalists order shutdowns anymore. :blobcatsweat:
@death @icedquinn @matrix I just want to live in a world that's honest enough to let me own my cocoa harvesters, smartphone assemblers and cannabis tenders directly.
you're allowed call people what they actually.
In this case, if it's not an instance of Poe's Law, you can just call them a fucking moron.

u dont know what ur talking about do u

@matrix And actually Lenin enslaved whole Russia. He was one of the biggest slaveowners of all times, only some other communists like Mao had more slaves.

@matrix It's a characteristic of the left to have disdain for public space and public property. They aren't communal and they are usually anti-social.
@matrix Some should these people that Marx supported slavery. Also, people like George Fitzhugh wanted a Plantation Marxism. I don't think MLs (or most "leftist") will ever get Marx
@lain_os @matrix They also think he was a feminist and for "indigenous autonomy" — communists are a joke.
