    Bullshit. The acquisition and accumulation of wealth is not a fascist construct. Yes rich people are fascists quite often but this stupid anti-capitalist rhetoric must stop. Whatya gonna do, abolish money?

      Yes, actually, eventually abolition of money is an important goal of Communism. You may wish to read Prices in a Planned Economy to learn more about what that looks like and how it’s done.

        Well you can’t. The population as a whole won’t let you.

          What do you mean? How do you keep using money after moving to a fully publicly owned, planned economy? You will still use tokens to exchange for goods from the public, but it wouldn’t be tradeable with others to prevent accumulation and profit.

      The acquisition and accumulation of wealth

      There is the problem, you don’t even know how to define capitalism. I would suggest reading “wage labor and capital” and “value price and profit”

          Both Wage Labor and Capital and Wages, Price, and Profit are free, as well as excellent for beginners with no experience in economics (though it’s easier to understand if you’ve at least taken a high-school or college level economics course).

          Unlike Capitalists, Communists advocate for moving beyond the profit motive 😉
