The problem with the “communism doesn’t work” argument is that it did work.

modern China thrives because they defy Marxism. They see the usefulness of market system and implement it that's why I like Chinese socialism. Also Socialism doesn't equal Communism...

communism is an evolution of capitalism. in order for it to work WITH globalized capitalism as opposed to against it, you need a transitional state. that's what china is doing so well. but there are other post-capitalist economic systems out there I believe, tho I haven't explored them at all. as long as you're anti-capitlist, that's cool, cause you can at least acknowledge that the current system isn't working. we can't exactly try new things or even foster children who will grow up to potentially propose a better economic theory under these conditions where all the billionaires are all like "no! mine! gimme!"

How on earth is modern China communist in way. It’s not even socialist. It’s literally just capitalist, with a fair amount of government regulation. Ever since Deng china can’t be called socialist or communist logically speaking. I’m not even a China glazer but it’s an effective government run by a powerful leader, they have currency, they have markets and companies and corporate entities. They are capitalist!!!

@Baraka could you explain how is china a communist state? Private property and wage labor exploitation still exist, china uses banking systems allocating credit and state is stimulating economy through deficit spending as in every other capitalist state
Who owns the means of production?
How surplus value is extracted and distributed?

I think the non-economic aspect of communism is extremely overlooked and is one of the many reasons it wouldn’t work with the current perspective most human beings have. People don’t realize how deeply ingrained capitalism is in the way we handle every single situation and how much it dictates our social lives and with how individualistic we’ve become at this point communism would not survive

The biggest anti-communist argument is literally that "only" like a quarter of all Marxist states "only" managed to be the second-most powerful country in the world for "only" half a century (so far)

Economic central planning doesn’t work. I have no idea whether communism works or not, but I do know that if it ever does work it will be because it embraced market mechanisms.

And when someone brings up Russia or China (the most powerful and rich countries in the world) they cry and say “they’re not communist they’re capitalist” in defense 💔

you realize how good communism works the second you google a picture of tsarist Russia, it's not AS prosperous in america because they only tried between 1917 and 1989

communism hasn't worked bc noone has even tried to make it. every communist society or nation ever has always had a dictator who when he finally got power and put in what essentially is a sort of communism but then they keep their power...bc they have power and they want power. communism just never will work bc humans inherently want power

Capitalists always say "Communism doesn't work" as if Capitalism is working right now 😭 No economic system is perfect, but at least in Communism you won't have children starving in the streets while our government sends another $100 billion to Israel and Elon Musk drops $40 billion on a social media app.
