So she’s a communist. Who cares any more? They have taken over everything, so they may as well check out the family tree.
You will, when you live under that form of government.
I went and looked for myself at that kind of government. There is no doubt they make everybody poorer....seriously so. More and more everyday products become impossible to get. More and more people vanish because of their opinions or expressed point of view. The rich go to other countries and they take their money with them. Quality of everything from windshield wipers to medical care drops while cost increases. Repairs and maintenance go away almost entirely. Food stores become clubs that can be patronized by the very rich and bureaucrats who remain as a ruling elite. Shoes and boots become harder and harder to get. Competitive pricing disappears. Violent crime increases, at least at first. Bribes and barter payment become the only way to get anything worth getting.
You'll love life under communism or at least that is what you will say.
