- abvdasker 4y agoCan you point to a well known communist today who opposes freedom of speech?
- alvarezbjm-hn 4y agoRussian, Cuban, Venezuelan, etc governments. I know your reply will be along the lines "But those aren't communists" Truth be told, there never was any communist.
- mardifoufs 4y agoThe current government in russia is absolutely not communist. They don't claim to be, and no one else does. Russia might be a continuation of the USSR but that's where the link to communism stops honestly.
- narag 4y agoIt doesn't stops there: their allies are communist: China, Venezuela, Cuba, etc. Also the communist parties everywhere support them in their war against Ukraine. I guess it all depends on you considering communism an ideology or just a faction.
