    Communism in practice is USSR and China type dictatorships. Fantasising about “real” “peaceful” communism ever existing is delusional.

    If you want to abolish private property and there are people who disagree (and there will always be) the central power will need to “neutralize” them.

      This is what Marx envisaged socialism as - the transitional stage between capitalism and communism.

      Shame that every single time this has been attempted its been quashed externally or coopted internally by bad actors.
