“Lem” is often used as an onomatopoeia for licking. Do with that information what you will.

Calling capitalism bad isn't equal to calling communism good.

I see this all the time. People think the opposite of capitalism is communism, which is plain wrong. They are completely different systems, but many parts are similar. If you say "I don't wanna do capitalism anymore" it's not like you are forced to be a communist now.
