Because Communism is an actual scientific economic theory that works so well that even capitalists study it to learn how to do capitalism better and not easily disproven, pseudoscientific, social Darwinist nonsense like fascism.
Off topic but, I’ve seen you posting a few times here and wanted to say that you’ve got a great screen name and Woody Guthrie would almost definitely be on a platform like this, were he online (and alive).
Almost every socialist party in the world focuses on things they’ll do right now, not in some hypothetical future. I’m a communist because I want improvements to the conditions of the working class immediately, even if it doesn’t create some utopia. That’s why in Chapter 2 of the Communist Manifesto there’s a list of immediate demands once a socialist party takes power, things like abolition of rent-seeking and inheritance.
Because they look at the contradictions and blame them on things like some ethnic group ruining everything. Labor movements have actually traditionally done a lot of that, but fascists solely want to blame regular working class people for the issues that capitalism wrought. (And exterminate them.) And again, we try to avoid talks of utopia. We just want to move on from capitalism.

If you want to see some of the most disturbing shit ever recorded about that. CW I don’t have all the Hexbear features, it’s the act of killing. It’s a doc where they interview people who murdered about a million suspected communists in Indonesia and then had some of the people who did it put on a stage production about it: https://www.nipissingu.ca/library/video-streaming-nipissing/humanities-and-social-sciences-videos/act-killing
Also, these guys are still walking around and are deeply embedded into local politics.
I got halfway through this. Never finished it…
You take power and start fixing the problems, and you ban people who thinks Jews and immigrants are the problem from saying that or holding any power.
Hell if I know.
