The "stereotypical lazy naive communist" isn't really a thing, outside of stereotypes. Communists tend to be some of the most involved and aware members of the working class.

No disagreement here.

Perhaps “stereotypical strawman communist” is better?

My point is they don’t exist as imagined.

Ah, gotcha. Agreed then!
