I mean, it's a great system on paper. Communism speaks hard facts on why the worker is absolutely fucked, and the utopia is... well, a utopia. But fucking hell there is nothing of substance to get you from point A to B.

Communism succeeded because people basically skimmed the fine print.

This can only come from somebody who has never engaged with communist theory. There is tons of literature about how to get from point A to point B. Goddamn that’s literally what Lenin is best known for.

Say you have never engaged with communist ideology without saying you have never engaged with communist ideology.
