I dunno if there were millions of well off western communists I think communism as an ideology would be in a better place. Rich people discovering communism is pretty fucking rare in my experience and historically speaking.
There's a ton of us petite bourgeois communists, but we don't always do the best things for the movement.
Are there even millions of Western communists at all haha?
American communist party membership is like what, 10-30k right now? And like half of that are Trots?
People who don't organize, while still cool, unfortunately don't count since we're talking about the progress of communism
At the very least, there's dozens of us. Dozens!
I mean what do you consider rich?
