William Z. Foster also spat in Khruschev’s face on his death bed.

Khruschev never attended his funeral in Moscow after that.

    No of course not, the reaction to it wasn’t either to a large degree I’m willing to wager. Capitalists aren’t very good at making and sticking to plans. Their economic instincts revolve around opportunism and observation. Watching the market with fists full of cash, waiting for an opportunity, then pouncing.

        Then you aren’t paying attention to the entire conversation, only the latest bit of it. Political momentary hyperfocus is an aspect of liberalism btw. The behest to ignore the big picture, to only follow the latest trends, what’s for sale, etc…

          Yes, that’s the bourgeois. They only adapted to the situation while there were no communists.

            No, that’s you I’m describing just now. And there are always communists, it’s just a matter of how many and what they are doing.

              There are not always communists. That is factually incorrect. And there may be few.
