the vertical axis on the compass is economic

it is

You don't understand communism.

Buy Bitcoin

it's capitalist money

is libertarianism or communism centrally controlled?

is Austrian economics or Keynesian economics centrally controlled?

Neither.

I rest my case

Libertarianism and communism aren't centrally controlled.

communism is literally centrally controlled

you're out of your mind

No it isn't. What do you think stateless means?

@米饭和面条 epic capitalist moment 😎

you can say that communism is stateless

It literally is.

doesn't make it so

By definition it literally is stateless.

well, the state controls everything, so I'm not really sure how that works

You don't know shit about communism then.

You just described state socialism.

how is the common ownership of the means of production to be managed?

Good question. That's why I'm not a commie.

IT NEEDS A STATE

commies can say they want a stateless society

By definition, communism cannot have a state.

by function, communism must have a state

No. That's called state socialism.

I don't really care what their definition says

I care about function

I do. That's how you beat commies in a debate.

I beat commies in debate by pointing at the failure of all of the communist nations that have existed and failed

None of them were communist.

They were all state socialist shitholes.

I guess that's why it's called the CCP

Ah yes, I guess North Korea really is a democratic republic!

I guess what I'm driving at is that socialism and communism are not exactly the same, but they're close enough that IDGAF about the minor differences between them

There are very major differences.

both are horrible

Communism is a more idiotic ideology.
