    I had a coworker tell me, with a straight face, that corporations are socialist because they’re owned by a bunch of people who get a share of the profits.

      American propaganda was so thorough that there’s a uncomfortable amount of people out there that think:

      Communism is when certain kinds of things get shared.

      And the list of how or what gets shared (and therefore becomes communist) is entirely arbitrary.
