See this is where we'd be at a fundamental disagreement and likely have reached an impasse.
I probably can't convince you otherwise and you for certain wouldn't be able to convince me that communism is inherantly evil and designed for coercion and elitist arrogance.
We'll have to agree to disagree.
Just be lucky we're not in a communist country or one of us would be dragged off by the secret police in the middle of the night for our views.
