Communism is when authoritarians impose socialism for weirdo ideological reasons. Libertarianism is when people want capitalism control every sector of the economy, also for ideological reasons.
Both are stupid.
"Weirdo ideological reasons" such as belief in equality of opportunities, belief in universal free education, healthcare and pensions, belief in worker rights or belief in the right to housing and of employment. Those weird to you?
Belief in at dictatorship of the proletariat and "the state will wither away" and all of the nonsense around how capitalism and imperialism corrupted science, etc.
The biggest famines in history weren't caused by natural disasters, they were caused by weirdo ideology.
