Most of the hexbear people I run into here are not even communists and barely know the first thing about communism (there are a few exceptions).
Most are just wumaos (or 50 cent army) who dogmatically post the "CPC" party line, or whatever RT is posting, as well as posting right wingers and neoliberals like the Daily Caller or Jeffery Sachs because they agree with the propaganda they're consuming/spreading. They have George Bush level logic: "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" assuming that if the US is bad then, transitively, Russia and China are good. The idea that all three are terrible, in different ways, seems to be too much for them.
Well damn, I guess I must have hallucinated all the monthly book clubs. But hey, I don't want to be trafficking with fake communists, so I'm very glad I ran into you! Can you please tell me where the hexbears have gone wrong so that I and others may avoid repeating their mistakes? It's only the comradely thing to do, and besides, it would be dangerous and irresponsible to leave misinformation uncountered. So, what is the "first thing" about communism that they're missing?
