The communist fantasy is that we should all work doing what we can to all have our needs met. That none of our work should be controlled by oligarchs or an oppressive state. That we express our needs democratically and work towards that goal together according to our ability. That in this pursuit we’re all treated as equals with no one systematically above others.
The capitalist fantasy is like you agreed with that the capitalist class should own everything and use that to control everyone unfettered by regulations.
Yeah, both of those fantasies are both equally unhinged and cruel.
I’m not going to argue about what happens in practise, but to argue that the communist fantasy is as explicitly evil and cruel as the capitalist fantasy is unhinged.

Come on, man, this is strawmanning 101. Do you really think I’m dumb enough to fall for that?
