Communism is awful, dude, and people who are "communists" or whatever fashionable label is currently in vogue, are fucking retarded. But that still doesn't mean that you should support the evil and indefensible aspects of our current system either. The right-wing authoritarianism, the welath inequality, even the vast, unchecked swaths of private property and private empires. Honestly, there should frankly be a limit on how much of the Earth you can "own", esp since it's total statism, and the state has to protect that land for you so at some point it's just rich people paying the state to thieve the Earth from the poor.
But yeah, communism sucks. Anarchism, which is basically supposed "real communism" sucks too

Capitalism and National Socialism actually had good results though.

Are we just forgetting about the whole early-mid 20th century western world? Where the greatest technological innovations in decades were made? Surpassing or matching slave USSR labor?

It all fucking sucks because humans can't just be content and sustain a simple life they have to seek power pride and vanity instead of just fucking living in peace and harmony. Idk what side to pick. I definitely lean more right but it's really all just fucked. I mind my own business at this point and let all the fuckwads in this country decide what they want to do.

The problem with Communism is that the Commies are probably right that "real" Communism does work. See the thing is is that if Communism does work, you can't call it Communism, rather it's some sort of socialism that ends up working.
And socialism doesn't end up working either because psychopaths/narcissists end up having the powers, then the money just ends up in fewer and fewer hands. So socialism that works will turn into Communism again.

>Idk what side to pick.
I've gone through this plenty in my life. Always torn between trying to actually pick a side and play a role in furthering a genuine political movement, or just staying neutral and not losing track of my own values. IMO, staying neutral is the only way to maintain your sanity and not get dragged down into the negative psychological and spiritual muck that comes with politics. Also, at the end of the day, people hate political operators and propagandists and partisans, and they can usually pick up on that sort of thing anyway.
For me, I'm just a libertarian. That's all I call myself. That describes me fair enough. I'm not really right-wing or left-wing. There are aspects of both that I see valid points with.
On the internet, everyone feels like they need to be a part of some super-radical, super polarized, super-partisan movement or ideology. That is stupid. That is genuinely for retarded babies.
