Conservatives want to bring us back to the first one, because “it’s naive childishness to even pretend people could be equal”.
Both liberal and conservatives benefit from inequality. Conservatives are just more vocal about it.

Little dude just trying to reach his apples 🤣
He is struggling to reach them. You can learn more from his book “My Struggle”. Once a best-seller in Germany
Why is there a question mark on ‘equality’?
I am assuming that it is because people see “equality” as the epitome of human fairness, so it is questioning that.
Sounds like it’s saying “or maybe this isn’t real equality?”, which is very counter to what I assume is its intended message, an attempt to convince the reader that equality isn’t the epitome of human fairness.
Well, equality is sometimes referred to in the vain of “everyone is equal” rather than “everyone is treated equal”. I think that might be what it’s saying. When the social idea of equality first emerged, I cannot imagine even for a second that they were like “yeah, everyone should be given exactly the same things regardless of their personal situation”, because nobody striving for an idea LIKE equality would come to that resolution. Like, equity is just what equality should have been in the first place.
Communism will never exist ,it’s utopia ,it becoming authoritarianism very quickly.We need other real alternatives to what we have now
Marxism is anti-utopian, it’s based on analyzing how societies evolve over time. What is deemed “authoritarianism” is the need for the proletariat to exert its control over the bourgeoisie, rather than the reverse, yet bourgeois rule is more authoritarian.
I guess it will never exist for you then
But it will exist for me. My favorite communism is extra authoritarian. I love having a state to rely on. A state that fights against evil for me, a state that provides me with what I need, a state that gives me a meaningful job.
I recommend you don’t get your information about communism solely from devout anti-communists
I lived in post sovier counties with USSR time ages,so I know pretty well what it was actually.It’s awful and never should happen again,but I didn’t say that I like capitalism too they both authoritarianism in extreme limits
“i lived in a formerly socialist place that had been looted by capital, therefore communism is bad”
The majority of people who lived in the Soviet Union want it back. Your complaints about socialism don’t make any sense, either.
Sounds like you’re the one who expects utopia
This echoes my concerns every time someone (especially under the age of about 40, especially American) praises “communism” (as if it were one thing) with some kind of absolute adoration.
In this case, OP: how did that justice work for the political dissidents sent to gulags?
The vast majority of people sent to prison by the soviets were criminals, thieves, murderers, rapists, etc. The political prisoners were largely members of the White Army, fascists, monarchists, or were active terrorists against society. For a country that went through a revolution, resistance from the older owning classes is expected, other revolutions were similar in use of force against the monarchy and other ruling classes.
