Welcome to c/Christianity

"Let it be very clear, then, that when the church preaches social justice, equality, and human dignity; when the church defends those who suffer poverty or violence, this is not subversive nor is it Marxism. This is the authentic magisterium of the church.

And it becomes a perfect critique of hexbear. Read theory.

In recent years, many young people have approached communism through social media, successful programs and popular online podcasters. The danger is that communism discovered online is limited to individual experiences, which may be intellectually and emotionally reassuring, but never "embodied." Such experiences remain "disembodied," detached from a party.


Still not gonna read theory though.
