Communism is bad for a myriad of reasons, but distributism is all of the good things about communism without the bad.

Do you trust any government?

Imagine Donald Trump becomes communist and seizes the means of production and gathers all of the wealth America has that will be owned solely by the government he's running. Do you really trust that he would have your best interest at heart or would you be concerned that he'd exploit us plebs?

Distributism isn't flawless, but a million miles better than communism.

Please explain to us what you think communism is.

Maybe you should learn what communism actually is before trying to come up with better systems than it

That's not Communism, though, and certainly isn't how any Communists support achieving it even if it was.

What's your reasoning for being against Communism, and for distributism?
