Not to mean disrespect for our military but someone that truly loves communism might like military life. Your job is assigned and centrally planned, you can't quit whenever you feel like it and must follow orders, you don't elect your leaders, you can't speak your mind, you don't get rich, bureaucracy is everywhere, the commissary has better prices than the free market, you can live in communal quarters with your comrades, you get free medical care of suspect quality, you sometimes get to use force, destroy things, and kill lots of annoying people. Possibly the original idea for communism came from military life.

Well, you’re not wrong. Of course, a military needs capitalism to fund and arm itself.

"My task was to organize defeat, so as to hasten the onset of revolution. I enlisted under the name of Petrov. The party looked to the peasant conscript soldiers - many of whom were wearing their first real pair of boots. When the boots had worn out, they'd be ready to listen. When the time came, I was able to take three whole battalions out of the front lines with me - the best day's work I ever did." - Yevgraf Zhivago

That’s not a funny joke if it was meant to be.
