TIL Communism is a political system. Socialism is an economic system.
Considering both of are philosophical ideologies with social, political, and economic implications... you may want to figure out what your actually talking about.

The modern marxists-leninist variants, what you just posted, clearly state that communism involves the dissolution of the state.
The transitionary period is socialism.
A system were the state owns the means of production can easily be a state capatalist entity.

Not sure what you read but I didn't dispute any of those.
Are you sure you live in a capatalist country comrade?

Understanding ones privilege does take time. Especially considering none of us grew up in a local upper class and we've all put in effort to improve ourselves already.
Telling people that their ideology is wrong without discussion just causes division. That's why I enjoy discussing these topics.

I can't deny the unknown consequences of climate change and racism around the world.
But for myself and my friend group, we come from a place that is VERY white so racism is rarely seen, and the effects of climate change won't really do anything for us locally.

Lol exactly.
When in the context of global scale economies, it has never been achieved.
I would direct your hate towards authoritarian/totalitarian regimes instead of communism.

It is fairly naive to assume that the CCP can't get this data if they wanted.
There is a history of increased involvement of the CCP into private company ownership.

This is also my thinking.
But the counter claim is that there is no clear path to communism. We've seen what has happened with Marx-Leninist states.
The analogy my friends use is that atleast we are in a position where we don't fear the end of humanity, rather than going down an unknown path.

On a local level I think it's jsut human nature.
I'm happy to help my friends with things for no cost, and they are happy to help me. This is communism on a micro scale.
My POV is that the selfish oligarchs don't want to lower their personal influence or wealth.

I am 100% opposed to authoritarianism.
My view is that we should try to be a meriticratic as possible, which I think can only be achieved under a communist like society.
No need for a state, we just need a shift in societal thinking to work to benefit everyone.

I want nothing more than people to live their life how they want (assuming human rights aren't violated).
This is why I am communist.
I beleive that the current system is leaning heavily towards corporatism if not oligarchal. I think we are heading towards anti-democratic states.

This is true in a modern context.
They also don't deny the inherant flaws of capatalism.
But achieving a lot of very useful technologies and products this quickly was undeniably due to a capatalistic society, understanding that it caused a lot of negatives in the process.

It's not the same thing.
I agree that you should be able make your own descision about whether the labour is worth the compensation.
This is neither capatalist nor communist.

I've seen a lot of rhetoric that capatalism is synonymous with a free market, which I think is one of the big misconception in the general population.
Some of my capatalist friends have a better arguement for capatalism, which is that it has accelerated growth that got us to a global society.

No you don't decide what your labour is worth.
Supply and demand decide what your labour is worth.
You simply decide if you want to work for that amount or not.

Having agreed to the compensation does not mean you are being compensated for the value your work provides.
If a company is to be profitable, they need to profit off labour in atleast 51% of cases.
BTW communism does not mean you can't have personal property.

This is actually the most pro-communism take possible.

We run into communication barriers if we have conflicting defenitions of the topic.
Just because some random source describes it that way, does not make it the defenition that is used by the general population.

There are large overlaps between anarchy and communism of this kind, where a social shift would involve trade and services for the greater good for society as a whole
