Nah it’s someone who is a class traitor who believes authoritarians who murder in the name of leftism is doing good when IRL these nations aren’t leftist at all eg China which has stock markets.
One does not simply "do" communism. You have to transition into it. Also, I shouldn't have to tell a leftist that capitalism isn't "when you have markets." Read a book. Specifically Capital.
A stock market is trade in the ownership of the means of production by private individuals, ffs
It is one of the innovations of capitalism. Jesus Christ.
Owning stock in a company does not give you control over the means of production. Sorry bud. Also, I don't remember Marx ever claiming that every innovation of capitalism must be discarded to achieve socialism. Has no one actually read Capital?
