What’s with all the downvotes?

Saw a few threads get blasted, and a de-federation post - did I miss the drama?

Exactly. Although there is much debate over what Marx envisioned when he put forward the idea of a Communist society, it certainly didn't involve an authoritarian, single-party dictatorship where The Party oppresses the people.

Tankies are more Stalinist and Maoist apologists than actual communists.
