RE: Cryptocurrency is Communist: The Brainwash Effect.

As far as I delve into the depth of a term, I start with the simple and ask for the most original form of a term. I try to find out or guess it myself first. If I manage to block out everything I have read and seen/heard, I would simply think that the term communism has something to do with a human group.

I associate terms like "community", "group of people", "congregation", "commune" or "communion" or verbs/adjectives like "communal", "common", "together" - there is no real evaluation to be found here and I don't need to be hooked right away.

I think any additional meaning can be attached to this term, because at first it seems quite neutral and refers to a plural group (more than two people).

Unfortunately, it's probably too much to ask that you can strip away what you've consumed so far in this way and approach it freshly for yourself. The terms socialism and communism are so occupied that they probably cannot be redefined, at least that seems unlikely to me.

Anarchism, I have framed this term positively for myself, it is just as misunderstood as the other two.

Basically, there doesn't seem to be any real positive connotation of terms describing a group or association of people at all. The most common terms I know carry a certain demonisation. No one gets off scot-free, see "Christians" as another example.

I already consider the search for terms to be rather questionable, because it is presumably always meant to unite as large a group as possible under one identity, and somehow that always seems to go wrong.

I would probably like it best if things simply ran without drawing much attention to themselves. Which has the advantage that they are not immediately seen by those whom one might not necessarily want to draw attention to oneself. A silent but effective word-of-mouth recommendation. But that also seems to be a contradiction in and of itself.

So I have no idea. Of course, I also hope that the forces currently at work will be opposed by something that doesn't immediately look like resistance or war to those forces.
