    This is naive. Having grown up in a post communist country I know better than to fall for empty propaganda. You don’t know what you’re asking for calling out on communism as your saving grace. Communism didn’t allow for any valie creation and the system was too rigid to respond to people’s needs as economy was preplanned in 5 year intervals. Chronic shortages. Full employment was required by law but quality of life remained stagnant. Capitalism has its pitfalls too. The best outcome lays somewhere in the middle of the two

      I’m not advocating for communism, and a political crisis of an authoritarian/totalitarian regime is a different problem from communism. Capitalism has a lot of problems, and I agree that there should be a better in-between to mitigate inequalities. Socialism is soluble in capitalism.

          I’d sooner take my chances with communism before I trusted global crackery for shit else other than to crumble in an orgy of genocidal violence. Which, mind you, the latter is the system that the world is currently forced to live under. Die mad about it; I have no reason to want to see your systems perpetuate, and I strongly doubt you could formulate any.
