More non-sequitors, I guess? You didn’t “dissent,” you just called me stupid. You didn’t even have productive criticism attached to your comment, it was a low-effort insult and thus broke the rules. Your other comments are still up.
Communists and Socialists have faced struggles with color revolutions and counterrevolutions, and have met those struggles with force, yes. However, it’s worth engaging with what the counter revolutionaries wanted. Well, they succeeded in the 1990s with the dissolution of the USSR, and what happened next was a collapse in life expectancy and 7 million excess deaths. Dissent is allowed in Socialist countries, what isn’t allowed is the Bourgeoisie acting freely and inciting violence against the people.
Further, your comment was hardly “dissent,” it was you insulting me without engaging with the arguments. It’s toothless. It’s unfortunate that you don’t live up to your username, fascism and anticommunism are twins.
The riots surrounding Tian’anmen Square resulted in hundreds of deaths of protestors and PLA officers alike, it wasn’t a rampant slaughter but the suppression of a western-backed color revolution. The student leaders admitted to inciting violence in order to provoke a violent response, hopefully triggering more widespread revolt in their eyes, but fled the scene to other countries like the US before the PLA was sent in.
Communism is democratic. Liberalism, which you are likely referring to, is tied to fascism. Fascism is liberalism when the conditions of society necessitate the bourgeoisie’s use of unrestrained violence to prevent changes to the status quo.

My “Fuck Fascism” T-shirt has people asking a lot of questions already answered by the shirt.
Who woulda guessed the liberal anticommunist turned out to be toothless when it comes to opposing genuine fascism?

They did not “break free.” 7 million people died, life expectancy plumeted, social safety nets were destroyed, poverty skyrocketed, sex trafficking skyrocketed, and the large majority of people who lived in the Soviet Union prefer it over modern Capitalism.
