people complain that Communism is "the system where everyone gave up on being rich" "where everyone decided to be equal" they wouldn't say that if they knew what capitalism was capitalism is a world where there is a limited number of equal-slots in the first place. where 900 people can be equal and then the remaining people have to be treated as utter subhumans with the utmost prejudice, just because they didn't get into an equality slot capitalism is the system where you have to swoop in and take another man's lunch to even get the chance to later create your own.
despite people saying that everyone "can't be equal" it's still utterly ubiquitous for people who know nothing about Communism to invent ways for people to be /exactly/ equal people go around all over the world trying to create concepts that everyone should somehow compete against each other for a set amount of wealth and then stop, just like criticisms of Bolshevism say only worse. what is greed? why does anybody invent the concept of greed and claim that billionaires are greedy if people can't be equal? if people can't be equal, then wouldn't everyone just abolish the word greed and say "I guess that's just how it is"? but they don't. they continue to believe there is such a thing as greed. even Tories believe in greed. they accuse center-Liberal government employees of being greedy. they accuse the specific billionaires they find disgusting of being greedy. so really, the only difference between strawman criticisms of Communism and anticommunists is that anticommunists believe everyone can be made equal through demanding every single individual behave a certain way, make certain choices as an individual, and not deviate from a particular standard of individual existence.
Bolshevism does not even say people should be forced equal. it only says that the system of 900 slots should be taken away so that all people can create wealth before they steal.
