    While communism hasn’t got a fair try. Either because of external forces or internal corruption.

    Let’s not act like it’s some utopia. Every attempt has immediately turned into a full on dictatorship with the worst intentions.

    Why is that? Because it seems completely incapable of dealing with the greed, violence, and general evil that makes up much of human nature.

    Let’s face it, if humans were “good” any government would work.

      Pretty much every single time a revolutionary socialist movement has taken power it has improved literacy, child mortality, wealth inequality, nutrition, and just about any other quality-of-life metric you can name. Get the fuck out of here with your “human nature” bullshit. Communism always works.
