    the destruction caused by ideology taking precedence over evidence and a system that cannot see or adapt to evidence that it’s made the wrong decision…Regardless though, these problems aren’t innate to communism.

    Absolutely correct. I’d go so far as to proclaiming it a base aspect of the human condition.

    Prehistoric survival strategy that hasn’t uniformly left the species/adapted to the modern world.

    Reaganism/Thatcherism are of the same nature. And fascists did it far more egregiously than anyone else, partly because their ideology is built on explicitly rejecting non ideological thought and all old ways of doing things.

    Also absolutely correct, and they know that.

    Even a moron like Musk, who I genuinely believe couldn’t correctly ID 10 pieces of irony even if they all floppily cockslapped his stupid face, is aware of why he peddles the drivel he does.
