But on X, he just destroyed every claim communists make about how they're for the common person.
Do communists in America realize that they are totally free to live as communists in America with no legislative changes required?

It's true.
They can all get together, buy land, capitol equipment and own it all in common.
They can “give according to their ability and…

They can “give according to their ability and receive according to their needs” and no one will lift a finger to stop them
There's only one catch…they can't force anyone to join or subsidize them. But it turns out that's too much to ask, so they will continue to advocate violence against others because their ideology is not motivated by “equality.” It’s motivated by violent envy.
Exactly.
Back in the 1960s, the hippies had plenty of communes. They varied to some degree or another, but they often hinged on just living their lives by sharing everything equally, including the work.
That last part got Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) kicked out of one, unsurprisingly.
But the reality is that while communists say they're for the working man and woman, that they're for the people and not the wealthy, there's absolutely nothing stopping them from living like that right here and now. They could do just as Freitas says, and they don't.
Because it's not about how they want to live their lives, it's about how they want you to live your life.
It's not that they want to share equally with one another; they want a share of what you earn. They don't want to have to work so hard, which is why they haven't already created their communist Utopias in America's heartland or wherever else they want it to be. They want you to do the work so they can take it from you and live off the fruits of your labor.
As Freitas puts it, it's "violent envy."
They want what you have, and they'll kill you to take it.
Which is bad enough in and of itself, but we've all seen a whole lot more people embrace outright communism without apology. They wear things with the Soviet hammer and sickle and do so unironically. They believe in the principles of communism and want to force it onto every one of us, because if they don't, if they just go off to do as they please and not bother anyone, they'd actually have to put in the blood, sweat, and tears to make it work.
But if they make you do the work, well...
Let's remember that communism is nothing but slavery with extra steps, and slavery on a national scale with fewer masters.
Freitas laid it out very simply and very effectively.
Unfortunately, for commies to understand that, it requires a level of intelligence that none of them possess. After all, if they had it, they wouldn't be commies.
