every “communist” when pushed will take position on atrocities committed by various communists regimes… they gonna do that thing that “fascists” do: “well he really did not do it but if he did, they clearly deserved it”

I have never encountered that argument. Is that something Tankies say?
What I have seen is the often mocked argument, that these regimes were not communist in the first place.
Actual communism has never existed and probably never will.
There are however plenty of communists that will openly denounce stalinism. That is the entire premise of Animal Farm, btw.

Communism is by definition a society without a state, so nobody has ever lived in a communist state and I doubt there has ever been a communist society in recorded history.

Except if you live near a semi-popular street. Then you still have constant traffic noise.

Communism is a society without social classes, money, or a state.
Feel free to name one so-called communist country that implemented that.

The eastern block was as communist as North Korea is democratic.
They did however socialize ownership of factories etc, so they did have an authoritarian form of socialism.

banning political parties would, safe to say, not be well received

Is there even a mechanism of the EU level for banning parties?

Employers in Germany have to bear half of the mandatory social security contributions.
This is on top of gross salary and includes mandatory health insurance.

Ach da brauchen sie sich keine Sorgen machen.
Wagenknecht steht fest für linke Positionen wie Nationalismus, Russlandnähe und den Kampf gegen die woken "Lifestyle-Linken".
Keine Chance, dass Rechte eine so ideologisch gefestigte Partei unterwandern.

Für Leute, die den Artikel nicht gelesen haben:

Der Weiterbetrieb von Mastodon sei durch die Entscheidung des Finanzamts aber nicht gefährdet, betont Rochko, da Patreon keinen gemeinnützigen Status voraussetzt und Einkünfte von Patreon nicht als Spenden gelten.
Tatsächlich habe Mastodon seit 2021 keine einzige Spendenquittung ausgestellt.

Nur wenn die Redaktion Hinweise von außen erhalten hätte, dann wäre das ein Anlass für Überprüfungen gewesen.
