I think it's angry people who have no idea what living under communism is like giving up on asking nicely for a socialist reforms.
Things are getting pretty bad in the US. Anger at the inequality is building. And for a few people they are angry enough to buy into the batshit idea that a "dictatorship of the proletariat" would be easier on them then the current system.
They should go and speak to the millions that lived under that system to get an idea what it was like. There are billions to choose from.
Im not sure how it was during the time, but a lot of people in my country that lived under communism want it back
Consider educating yourself (lol, I can't even type that with a straight face, but here it is anyway, for anyone who does actually want out of this capitalism hell):
