it is 100% untrue to say that communism has failed.

communism has NEVER BEEN TRIED!

why? centralized wealth and control WAS IMMEDIATELY SEIZED BY THE PLUTOCRATS WHO THEN USED ITS RESOURCES AND CONTROL TO DICTATE TO EVERYONE ELSE IN SOCIETY.


It just so happens that Carl Marx said that after a revolution then communism should be administered by a dictatorial plutocracy. Then later when it is running smoothly and its success obvious to everybody, then it should become a democracy.

The problem is that those dictators never could figure out how to make it run smoothly. And if they did I doubt they would give up power.
