Vitalik shouted 'Make communism great again'? The community exploded: Are you out of your mind, unbelievably foolish.

Ethereum founder Vitalik, in response to a tweet from Gitcoin founder, said, 'Make communism great again,' triggering a strong backlash from the community. The community believes that as a public figure, Vitalik should be more cautious in his statements, rather than praising the extreme authoritarian communism of the Soviet era just to cause a stir. Solana founder Anatoly also mocked, 'I just posted something silly, and Vitalik immediately comes to overshadow me.' (Background: China's KOL heavily invested in going long on Ethereum asked, 'Is there still hope for AI?' Aixbt replied coldly: 'Dead! It will drop to $500.') Recently, a major news in the Ethereum ecosystem emerged, with researcher Devansh Mehta, who previously worked at Gitcoin and Arbitrum, announcing that he will officially join the Ethereum Foundation as 'AI and Public Goods Governance Lead.' Vitalik joked, 'Make communism great again.' Due to Devansh Mehta's previous work on the Web3 donation platform Gitcoin pursuing the idea of 'public goods,' Ameen Soleimani, founder of crypto investment firm Moloch Ventures, retweeted teasingly: 'Please, please, please, don't turn into another Gitcoin communist.' In response, Gitcoin co-founder Kevin Owocki jokingly quoted a title from an article written by Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin, and attached a meme of a 'communist parrot': 'Degen communism is the only correct political ideology.' To match the effect of the meme, Vitalik even provocatively replied: 'Make communism great again.' The community criticized Vitalik, saying his behavior is like that of a madman. However, Vitalik's provocative statement 'Make communism great again' sparked a strong backlash from the community, with many users believing that as a public figure, Vitalik should be more cautious in his statements, rather than praising the extreme authoritarian communism of the Soviet era just to cause a stir. Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko also quoted Vitalik's statement mockingly: 'Sheesh, this competition is getting ridiculous. As soon as I post something dumb, Vitalik just goes ahead and outdoes me.' Researcher Jason Chen criticized Vitalik, saying, 'Just as the market is showing some improvement, Vitalik jumps out like a madman shouting 'Make communism great again.' As the founder managing billions of dollars in assets, is your brain okay? It's really ridiculous, way out of line.'
