Democratic and democracy isn't the same thing.
I get what you are going at, but I just hate the muddying of the waters.
Thanks for the link but I know enough about political systems (theoretical and real, and those to oretend be) and don't need some random indoctrination ;-)
Communists advocate asserting the will of the majority to make a more democratic system. Both sides are democratic, even if they aren't reformist.
How is it "indoctrination?" Why speak about Communism at all if you don't know what Communists are talking about in the first place?
I do know what communism is, I do not need to read some random book you refer to to "understand".
So I should read books that communists are talking about?
That's indoctrination 101.
Go get a history book instead or trying to pump up your communism with cozy democracy.
Democracy is good, communism is an utopian dream that is very nice but never functions, like anarchism and a bunch of others. But I guess your book says that it can work, like for real this time.
You don't need to answer, we're on completely different wavelengths here.
Good luck with your communism though, I'm staying in democracy!
never... except all the times they have
