    Scamming someone out of a million dollars could be a felonious act.

    Typically the criminal courts don't get involved in contractual matters though.

    USSR existed. Commie China exists. Your pie in the sky bull is quite immature.
    your "anything i dont like is left wing therefore left wing is bad" shtick is immature.

    neither the USSR nor Maoist China were communist societies. they had communist parties, both of which either failed or did not attempt to establish a communist society

    a society that has abolished money/capital, class, and the state? im not aware of any

    we've had authoritarian socialist states though. obviously everybody on ST understands that communism and socialism arent synonyms

    For what, a mere promise?

    No way.

    Equities way too asymmetric to assume nothing would obtain beyond the in ial gift.



    (It's old Germanic custom: gift requires countergift, the omission of which is a fault of respect and a loss of honor to the deprived.)
    It's a simple proposition. Why do people want to tack on caveats then answer?

    No.

    It should tell you something that lawyer lite hasn't jumped in to tell me I'm wrong.

    Now run along, BlakeBlaker.

    They showed you what communists are. As did Castro. As did Eastern Europe. You're pretending they just didn't do it right is immature.

    Okay I get where you're coming from, true communism is a society that has never and will never exist.

    we've had authoritarian socialist states though. obviously everybody on ST understands that communism and socialism arent synonyms
    Authoritarianism is the ultimate result of both forms of government so in a practical sense they are synonymous

    Nothing is that simple.

    Even if it were, my answer would be no.

    correct as to "has never" and almost certainly correct as to "will never"

    Authoritarianism is the ultimate result of both forms of government so in a practical sense they are synonymous
    this makes no sense.

    how is authoritarianism the ultimate result of communism? (setting aside socialism for second)

    how would a stateless/classless/monie-less society have authoritarianism as the ultimate result?

    i get it bro, you just want to reflexively say left wing things bad.. but its usually a little more complicated than that

    The proposition wasn't a sales pitch. X for Y is simple. You feel the need to infer X for Y with Z as an unknown. You changed the narrative to avoid the question.

    So your party membership and vote are worth more than saving countless struggling families? You could do a lot of altruistic with 1 billion.

    Yeah once you reach the billionaires club you’d be able to have influence over either party so it’s not even a real question anymore. If got a billion dollars in exchange for never being able to vote Democrat or in any way support another Democratic candidate pretty sure I’d still be able to bankroll the campaign for several “Republicans” who had a liberal agenda.
