  • Because most people are just saying stuff that is not true, which the link corrects.

    But you’re often just commenting the link, which puts the onus on the person you’re replying to to read the entire Wikipedia page in order to decipher what you’re contesting. Kind of like assigning homework. Again, presumptuous.

    If you read their comments that I reply to with that link, the facts documented contradicts what they are saying, and hence, may convince people of the validity of the claim.

    Unlikely. People won’t put in the work to decipher you, so it’s a poor methodology for convincing anyone.

    Not if I see people getting facts wrong its not.

    You’ve also got facts wrong, as mentioned above.

    Hey, I can think what happened in Eastern Europe was just authoritarian dictatorships, backed by Muscovite colonialism & branded as communism just the same as what happened in parts of South America was just authoritarian dictatorship, backed by American imperialism & branded as laissez-faire capitalism.

    Also I can think communism has never actually been tried, and that it’s functionally impossible (therefore people should stop advocating for it).
