      Let’s make it more interesting. Name a place where communism has taken hold and has worked as intended without a ruling class and without resorting to human rights violations of their citizens

        The downvotes say it all. No one in favour of it here seems able to have an honest discussion.

        If you are genuinely unable to see that any political system, no matter how great in theory, doesn’t translate that simply into reality because of human behaviour, then you’ve got some reading and thinking to do.

        The attitude towards communism here comes across like a cult. Present facts or a reasonable point of discussion, you get shouted down/strawmanned, othered, etc.

        Ironically, the very behaviour that stops things like communism working in reality.

          Why are you so insistent I doxx myself to you? For a person defending communism you sure do seem to want to throw me in a dungeon for wrong think

            I’m not the one who claimed to have lived under a communist regime. You did.

            Are you still living under a communist regime?

            Would simply stating where and when you live under a communist regime put you in danger?

            If so then why did you volunteer that information on a public Internet forum?
