And Marxist would philosophically be against the concept of allodial property, which Bitcoin is.

It's hard not to... They're so wrong that you just can't help it 😂

Ask him what he would do if he got $1M. Let him fantasize about what to buy and where to move, until you ask if he shouldn't share it all with his commie brothers🤣

Probably a fake commie...

That is the hardest argument, but I think we can dismantle it because there is a dichotomy between private and personal property in those circles.

Given that communists are often deconstructionists, it’s no surprise they could take apart nearly any argument if given enough time.

Communism is an utopia that requires socialism to dismantle classes and banking. It relies on central banking and the state as a “necessary evil”. But the goal is to dismantle it, as well as the state. IMO you can argue them that bitcoin does that without having to rely on the corrupting power of a CB first.

I prefer to just ignore communists than to argue with them

I think we will have a lot of them in the future, if things continue the way they are. I was a communist as a youngster, I literally argued for people to all dress the same at some point. I didn’t know shit about the theory, only “capitalism bad”.

I could have easily be startled with a novel concept (“Marx didint like the state either”) because those ideological pillars were very weak.

Your approach is a bad one.
