So the reason I everyone’s laughing at you is because communists want to overthrow the government with armed violence. Like that’s what makes us communists. It’s specifically all of the guns and the desire to use them against the police, rich people, and politicians. Like, when people engage in rhetorical hyperbole to call the Democrats communist, they are, of course just at worst lying. Like there’s there’s no comparison in there at all.
It’s not correct to say that communists are the ones doing gun control. Communists tend to be very pro-gun because they support armed revolution. Democratic socialists may be pro-gun, but there is ideological room for supporting gun control because they tend to be reformist minded, supporting a reform of the current government system to provide a better social safety net.
