not having the self awareness to realize this applies to anti-communists, not communists/MLs as they use scientific reasoning.
Just to understand what you are saying, do you say communists apply scientific reasoning?
Yes, the foundation of most communists reasoning is based on sociology.
That's very abstract and doesn't mean much. With as many words you can say capitalism is based on scientific reasoning.
Its not abstract at all, 'Marxism' is an entire field in sociology and is recongised + fundemental to understanding sociology.
Marx was the third ever sociologist, the first being Weber and the second I always forget his name. But this is historically attested to, it's not something I just pulled out of my ass lol
