"A true communist loves and cares for all around them. If they are a leader they love and care for their nation, supporting the individual, family, community and country. It is sad that today there are many pretending to be communists. They are totalitarians and autocrats. They are the bully not the loving parental figure all "chiefs" must be for national health. A great leader is an updraft, a feeling of elevation and shows the way to peace and sustainability. The faux-communist loves themselves, is a gangster capitalist in thin disguise and cares more for their own ego and image than the sons and daughters of their motherland. When foreign nations show more love for the citizens than their own leader the diagnosis of faux-comrade is complete," said the general, head raised to the coming dawn.
Communism has never been tried on a scale larger than a single cooperative tribe - regimes that have called themselves communism have in reality been capitalist totalitarian dictatorships. If money is involved, if there is a money-nexus at all, then it is all a form of capitalism. A sharing love-nexus society can be very individualistic and very free, it can be a fully fledged and robust democracy, it can have great academic and public institutions. Sometimes words reveal truth, often times in this era they obscure truth. All that is on the menu around the world is capitalism and totalitarian dictatorships. And that's why I prefer not to say either "capitalism" or "communism" - sometimes words can be so misused as to lose their definitions in a practical sense. So I say "money-nexus" and "love-nexus," because those terms are clear and get to the heart of the matter.
