It’s utopian
Coloquially? Seychelles.
Hurdur
Probably.
republican spain what
what are you on about
Lol.
Good question.
Although it is probably true communism has never really been tried
tried is a vague term
Well, according to the Marxist definition, I don’t think even socialism was tried.
As it means the common ownership of the means of production.
it's all semantics
mostly because "communism failed" or "it doesn't work" isn't an actual argument
it's too vague to be worth entertaining a discussion
its just something you can say that superficially sounds right
rhetoric or whatever
So the real question is could it ever work
Which is no
Unless we get UBI and complete automation-
define work
Capitalism has worked the best
No such thing as a perfect system buddy
maybe if we achieve post-scarcity it could work
scientifically impossible
But eventually you have the super rich controlling all the wealth and everyone else fighting for crumbs
It ends like the game of monopoly
you can't achieve post-scarcity in a materially finite universe
What if we become technologically advanced enough to synthesize water
And lab grown human meat that’s ethical to consume!
i mean sure
practical post-scarcity
what if we automate the entire labor force
having a metric fuckton of resources to go around
and let supercomputers take over
scarcity technically still exists it just wouldn't be an issue at the time
Or maybe have every country work on population control? Stop awarding people for having kids, sanction countries that wont control their populations
good luck with that
Its better than billions of people dying from famine, disease, or lack of clean water
>every country work on population control
