What is wrong with communism?

There is nothing 'wrong' with Communism. The thing is that most Westerners get the misconception that Communism is bad. This is because during the Cold War in an effort to get support against the USSR and Communism the US used wildly incorrect propaganda which made most people think Communism=Tyranny, which isn't the case. Take it from me, I lived in the Soviet Union, visited Cuba and China, and I wasn't oppressed, nor did I ever see anyone around me be a victim of 'tyranny'. Its all propaganda. Basically this..... There have been tyrants in capitalism. South American countries and South Eastern Asian countries (who are still all LECDs), Africa and Middle East have non-democratic capitalism.
