    I summed it up in my response to them, but essentially they have a confused idea of what Communism even means. It’s perfectly possible for them to have grown up in a Communist nation, but 2 points stick out as confused:

    1. They believe Communism structurally depends on “good people not being selfish” without elaborating, and

    2. They believe Communism to be about some vague “equality,” despite Marx arguing against said very notion.
