What's the real difference between Marxism and Communism?

I need to make sure, if someone could help me I would be grateful. So if i understand those concepts right. Marxism was the first one from Karl Marx and it developed as a critic of the capitalist society, although communism grew from that and was made in response to industrial capitalism.

Also, Communism wants equal resources when Marxism wants equality for all human beings? Because the goal of both of them is to eliminate the class society, but is it somehow different in both of them?

And I'm not sure, but is communism more like the revolutionary one? Idk really and i read about those but different sources give me different answers

Thank you if you would be willing to answer my questions :3

One of the core things capitalism is interested in is making any labor performed invisible.

Capitalism does not want you to think about the people who designed your furniture. It does not want you to think about the people who sewed your clothes. It does not want you to think about the people who plant and harvest the food you are eating, or the people who work to keep your infrastructure running. Capitalism has a vested interest in you never thinking about the people taking away your trash, or the people who work in the warehouses from where you order. It has a vested interest even in you ignoring the work of the many invisible hands who might work on your entertainment - the caterers, set builders, gaffers, and so on.

Because as long as you are ignorant of the labor put into the things you consume, you will be fine with those laborers being treated like shit.

That is why you need to keep thinking of that labor. Look at the things in your room and keep the people who worked for it in mind. Look at your clothes, your furniture, your gadgets. Think of the sewers, the warehouse workers, the miners, the technicians. Think of the people capitalism wants you to forget.

i saw a video today that mentioned the learned helplessness that a lot of liberals turned leftist do and tbh it’s a problem

like yeah we’ve been fucked royally by the system but not doing anything and being all doomer about our current circumstances ain’t gonna change shit

like let’s take the literacy crisis as an example: yes, there are systemic issues that caused the literacy crisis, but sitting there with your ass in your hand isn’t gonna do anything

you need to start to actually trying to improve if you’ve been screwed over by the education system. hell, if you’ve been screwed over by the system in general, acknowledge it, and make steps to change it

sitting there doing nothing isn’t gonna help. stop yelling, start acting

You may think that video is funny, you may think that picture is cute or cool, but then you realize what it is. You realize what it’s doing to the nature we align ourselves with. The water, the trees, the plants, even the insects that we NEED to survive. Is a cute video or cool photo worth all the shit our nature is suffering? No! You can literally make that video yourself if you just do it. You can literally commission someone else to make that exact picture for you if you’re not desperate for money. And if you are, learn to do it yourself. That's free! With YouTube videos, premade bases! Who do you think you are? You are human, we’ve, for generations, figured out how to do creative things regardless. You don’t need the picture or the video to be perfect. You just need it to be human. And if a blind man can draw and write a children’s book by hand, you can too. If a person with arthritis can continue to draw or paint, you can too. There’s no excuse.

When it comes to making music, figure out how to play instruments with YouTube or classes, work on your voice with the same options and practice. Voice acting, same thing as above and here. Commission a voice actor or learn to do it yourself with the same options! YouTube, classes. One of them is free and one of them isn’t. Can you figure it out or do you have to ask ChatGPT? We're losing sight of intelligence because of this. On top of something else entirely but that’s a whole different thing, a whole different issue.

When it comes to writing it’s just as easy, get something to check your language and punctuation for you, like Google Docs or yourself, or even someone else like a trusted family member or a friend, or even pay for an editor if you have the money. Take classes again, watch YouTube again. It’s so easy to do without this thing that’s harming our Earth.

If you’re offended by this, there’s one thing you can do, do what I’m asking because there are people out there who are going to be WAY WORSE to you than this. You are hurting our planet and you are losing your human way of intelligence and creativity. Doesn’t that sound horrible to you? Or do you just not care? That’s the only explanation at this point.

Fuck AI.

I hate when people say 'oh but every communist country is also a dictatorship one'.

1st of all, none of them were real communist countries , because none of them reduced means of production to not be private.

2nd of all, when the Soviet union became a 'communist' country , they already were a dictatorship. The process of industrialization was very quick there. And many other countries that tried being a similar country to them, with the same system. So they decided to have a dictatorship as well.

3rd of all, people were really hoping for a better life in those countries because this abolished the class system. This gave the peasants hope and as we know, the peasants were a large part of society. So it continued to grow.

4rd of all, the dictatorship helped displacement of other elites who did not suit their model of a good leader. So it wasn't part of communism and communism doesn't lead to dictatorship.

And i swear if someone says that it is a natural and an impossible to skip step in communism. IT IS NOTTTT , it was caused by historic factors as well as the social ones.

We need to have our society educated

Example:

"Communism" till 90' in Eastern Europe wasn't really Communism. I really like songs that criticize how "communism" used to look till 90' in the Eastern Bloc of Europe. Because it was combined with totalitarianism, censorship, lack of human rights, needs of production still were PRIVATE, propaganda, and the concept of money was still present. So it wasn't really what communism is supposed to look like. And a great example of it is a punk-rock song called "What do you need freedom for?" by Kult . I translated the title into english just so you know. And as i said earlier it criticizes how it used to look back then. (I recommend listening to it)

It is written and sung in polish, but i think we can see why many people are against communism these days. They don't really understand that back then it wasn't really it. So i think we have to raise public awareness, that's why we need our society to be educated. Without that, capitalists will keep dragging them against us.

i don't think enough people are angry about capitalism because we're taught that's just how life is. we're told to suck it up, get on with it, and accept that this is the only way to survive in a late stage capitalist society.

think about how many people work for businesses that treat their employees like they're disposable and not even human. so many never speak up because they don't think they have the right to be angry. we're taught that growing up means accepting inhumane treatment, keeping your head down, and working through it because we believe there's no alternative.

but you do have the right to be angry. in fact, we need to be angrier if we want things to change.

marx wrote about the importance of organisation. he argued that the working class could only challenge capitalism by organising collectively, and part of that organisation is sharing our anger, our frustration, and our experiences. when people realise they're not suffering alone, that's when solidarity begins.
