      You can choose not to answer and I respect that, I’ve seen you guys post around here a lot. While I have in the past tried to avoid those conversations, I’ve simply never given any of you a chance to speak your mind. Do I believe there are people on lemmy that just want to troll? Absolutely! There’s people like that everywhere, I’m simply trying to understand your perspective because I’ve never engaged in the subject, now I’m intrigued. I’ve gotten to a point where I just have to know what drives you and why. Answer if you want or ignore me, I won’t harass you about it. I’m just trying to give you a chance to speak and explain so I can better understand. There’s no trickery here, I promise.

          Wow, that’s a wild point of view. Thank you for sharing, that’s actually really fascinating to see things from another perspective. Unfortunately I don’t think I would ever agree to follow in those world views, but I respect your right to believe them and that’s realistically what both sides need to achieve, mutual respect. So thanks.

            Why don’t you read some communist literature? There’s 150 years worth of recommendations on almost every conceivable topic from many countries and in many languages. Almost all of us started as liberals until we read something that changed our minds. Once a Marxist has explained capitalism, there’s almost no chance of going back (although some do, and they tend to become the worst type of monster).
