Communists make weapons too tho. It's kind of a whole cycle.
One, the issue isn't the production of weapons in of itself. Weapons are used for defense, survival, and recreation which are (in my opinion) ethical. The issue is "defense" contractors like Lockheed are not producing weapons to defend against exploitation, oppression, etc. They are produced for imperialist powers to defend the interests of exploitors, oppressors, and war mongers.
Secondly, I am an anarchist. Statist "communists" are often no better than capitalists to me.
And also to oppose the interests of exploiters, oppressors, and warmongers.
From causes as good as anarchists in Rojava to as evil as fascists in Israel.
If you think USA gives a shit at all about Rojava, then I have bad news for you. (oil)
