    The same is true of many implementations of communism. The problem isn’t the system, the problem is people, and people try to corrupt the system to their benefit.

      I mean, in the the liberal west used violence to replace comunism with a right wing dictatorship. Yes.

      However that isn’t really a flaw in comunist theory

        Yes. Basically, any time someone tries to do something nice for everyone and introduce communism, some people or other come along and fuck it all up. Then they call their fucked up monstrosity “communism” to further damage the credibility of any meaningful progress.

        Those people are the same people who fuck up capitalism and distort it for their benefit. Maybe it’s easier for them to do under capitalism, maybe that’s just what they’re used to and they don’t want to change, but if all you do is deal with capitalism as the problem then you’re still going to have a people problem with whatever comes next.

      Lmao, I literally read this exact same “argument” from a different user in a different thread five minutes ago.

      You guys really need to come up with some new material.
