Try reading the posts that are written, not those you dream about when you comment on a perfectly acceptable response to a perfectly acceptable statement.

Communism is not actually my fantasy. I believe in no utopian fantasies- not capitalist ones, not communist ones, not socialist ones. Humans being the way they are, everything is pretty much going to be dystopian, and one needs to look (imo) for the least dystopian system. I was merely acknowledging that communism as Karl Marx envisioned it has never actually been put into practice- what we've seen are basically oligarchies that called themselves communist. Many people use the term without thinking about that (not that I think Communism actually CAN exist, people being what they are.)
