    It’s bold to assume communists give to everybody, or basically anybody.

      We’ve never had real communism.

      I don’t think human nature will allow for true communism at scale. Like all political organizations beyond a handful of people, corruption is de facto present and completely at odds with the theory.

      People can swear up and down that it’s doable but I truly don’t think it could ever be by humans. We are too selfish.
