National heritage and identity are bad
Marxism is essentially a kindergarten answer to the complexities of real-world economics
Marxism, more broadly, goes against human nature.

Not even economics
@UnfilteredGarbage didn't Marx write down that quote?
The economics are bad
There are no economics, Python.
What, the religion quote? Yes, that's the joke
I thought so.
But taking out nation states, heritage, culture, families religion
In the truly utopian state of Communism, there is no such thing.

He was the first neckbeard Atheist who thought he knew everything.
No, he really wasn't. He was just the first to publish his livejournal

The entirety of Marx's influence has been through the capital sale of his works
Let that sink in
Basically, yeah.
Communism wouldn't exist without Capitalism.
Actual communist states don't proliferate Marxist thought, because it would reveal their failures in attaining the Marxist ideal
That's because Communism doesn't actually work.
Hence the amount of information control and revisionism common in those nations
@Little Boots yup
Within the eyes of an economist, Communism's fundamental flaw is the requirement for both the supply of all labor and resources to be infinitely abundant. Scarcity will never be eliminated, and even if we do eliminate scarcity within labor and resources, you still have scarcity of time.
More than that, labor theory of value is just a race to the bottom
Thus, Communism as a natural progression will never be.
Scarcity is impossible to get rid of.
All that happens is it shifts from one resource to another.
My biggest issue with communism is the fact I’m a nationalist
Back two hundred years ago, bread was a desired commodity.
Now, the scarce resource is the materials that go into making computers.
Rare earth elements or REE
