🇬🇧🇨🇳 communist - 共产主义者 : English Lesson

Meaning of "communist" ("共产主义者"), detailed definition, and a short video lesson below.

A communist is a person who believes that all important things in a country, like big farms, factories, and businesses, should be owned and shared by everyone together, instead of by just a few rich people. Communists think that if everything is shared fairly, then no one will be poor or super rich, and people will work together like one big team. Many communists join special groups called communist parties to try to change how their country is run so it matches these sharing and fairness ideas.
