Communism/Socialism has literally never been tried

Communist society is, as defined by the great Karl Marx, as a class-free society with NO ruling elite where the population collectively and directly own the means of production and distribution.
There has never been such a country in the existence of this planet, therefore communism has never been tried.
They are called tribes you pathetic excuse for a human. Tribal society was as communistic as it gets. Gues what? They evolved or died out.

They don't have free markets you fucking cuck. They aren't capitalist. They are trying to adopt Marxist ideas but can't because it's impossible. Marx and his ilk have brought the world nothing but horror and death. Meanwhile the crony capitalist society (which isn't true capitalism) has brought about the highest standard of living the worlds ever known. Cunt

I take it that you are the type of person who is racist and stupid for the sake of being contrarian. Not the kind that just has suspicions or anything like that, no, you do it just to feel special or like you're hot shit. Instead of just chiming in when you think corrections need to be made, you're the kind of dickhead who just has to be posting or talking about it all the goddamn time. Like, your facebook statuses are probably entirely right-wing/alt-right propaganda or cherrypicking mistakes from the left-wing. And let's not forget the fact that you have to fucking tell everyone about it in group chats all the time, going so far as to expect them to take time out of their lives to watch stupid videos from really stupid people. You're an idiot and you're the reason why this country has been crumbling to the ground for the past 10 to 20 years. I bet you're the type of person who identifies as a "redneck" and would proudly wear an edgy confederate flag somewhere on them while thinking "Wow look at me! I'm a rebel! Fuck the system, because I'm a super cool lone wolf! I'm not an asshole, the left-wing is an asshole!" You're so pretentious you have no fucking idea. Your heads are so far up your asses that they're back on your necks. Get your shit together and be decent, please.

Commu/Socialism can only work in a group of less than 5 people And even there it's impossible due to individualism showing up Collectivism only drags everything down so that minorities can keep leeching the lemons
Aaron Mitchell
Oh look, its another episode of this failed state is not real socialism.
Henry Nguyen

Angel Sanders
so then, why is it that all communist-inspired states fall into this? does communism forget a key part of human nature? even if theoretical communism has never been tried, is there any situation in which it could?
Elijah Walker
>therefore communism has never been tried. Yeah, because it's imposible to make it work in practice.
Thomas Long
Call me stupid, but doesn't socialism dictate that someone's calling the shots? Someone has to decide what businesses get appropriated and how money gets doled out, right?
Is that not a ruling elite? I am ironically interested in your answer.

NO country has ever done this therefore communism has never been tried.

Pure capitalism has never been tried before either. Also, we don't need to try Communism, to know that it is an illogical pipe-dream.

What retards like OP don't understand is there will always be an elite class. Just join your local commune. You don't think there is a group that has the most clout and voting power to be the majority? Within that majority, people are greedy and want to rule that majority. The group with the majority vote obviously votes in their best interests. They vote themselves the EASY jobs. Usually the newcomers get the hard jobs no one wants. That's why there is such huge turnover with communes. People quickly find out who rules and has the majority.
Nathaniel Miller
Ok, I'll bite: why has real Communism never been tried?
And does the fact that it's never been successfully implemented show an inherent flaw in Communism?
Dylan Cruz
> socialism has never been tried This argument is never used when pointing out economic efficiency of so called socialist states
Why is that?
Camden Jenkins
>Pure capitalism has never been tried before either.
Yes it has, many times in many countries. Even libertarianism has been tried and failed, the only system that hasn't even been tried properly ever is communism.

Nolan Taylor
But it's different from the hyper-corrupted-capitalism we live in today where the few are self-serving, the few in socialism are the government, the representatives of the people who can be replaced if they aren't following the general will, the people are technically in charge in socialism.
Mason Foster
Communism has been tried, in those examples you gave and many more, that's the fucking point you simpleton. Every single time communism is "tried" it results in atrocity. That is why we don't want to "try" it, because it will invariably fail and the deaths will be six digit. Fuck off commie scum.

There's no capitalist utopia created in the exact vision of adam smith either, but the difference is millions are savagely murdered anytime communism is communism is attempted.

Jeremiah Sanders
No "comrade" it can't be that way. We are not even close to post scarcity. Every territory has resources and rely on trade. There will be a shortage of something.
The transitional ruling class would never give up their positions either.
And never will be because the entire philosophy only works in a vacuum.
Jason Price
This only means you shouldn't trust people who say "we're gonna _try_ communism."
Henry Allen
Capitalism isn't perfect, but it's the best economic model tried so far.
Samuel Davis
Oh, my dear shitpost leaf, so naive. Communism and socialism have all been tried many times over. Every time it ends with the same result- putting that much power in the hands of the state ends up in humans abusing that power.
Isaiah Morgan
This, giving the government the power to have all wealth and redistribute it to make socialism is so fucking stupid, it would take 1 or 2 corrupt people to literally own the entire wealth.
Jack Murphy
No. No videos.
Just briefly answer the questions.
Caleb Williams
he admits that people arent ants and require to have a hierarchy. There will always be an elite class, people need leaders.
Nicholas Parker
Tried and succeeded aren't the same thing. In all those revolutions people were promised the Marxian vision freedom and equality, but when property was removed from it rightful owners and the social hierarchy destroyed opportunists like Stalin of Mao simply took charge as dictator. You don't get something better by destroying your traditional society, that's why communist revolutions always end in muh not real communism.

It's a system that was never designed to work. It was globalist created to decrease populations & set things in motion for destabilization or "1984" style take overs.

An example: >In other cases, where the Nazi administration wanted additional industrial capacity, they would first nationalize and then establish a new state-owned-and-operated company. In 1937 Hermann Göring targeted companies producing iron ore, “taking control of all privately owned steelworks and setting up a new company, known as the Hermann Göring Works.”

How about you actually explain it in this thread instead? It seems to me that a classless society with no elite is simply not possible. I genuinely cannot think of a society where there has never been an elite ruling class of one sort or another.

Nicholas Russell
It's called human nature. Socialism/Communism can't exist due to our biology and our ape-like brain. Simple as that. It's impossible to work as intended. Sounds good - works like shit. So yeah, USSR, Cuba, Venezuela etc are all examples of Communism in actual practice.
I can have the intention to fly and jump out the window after some friend said it would work. After I land and break a few ribs I will tell people "Flying didn't work, it caused great suffering. Flying doesn't work.", my retarded friend would come and say "But you didn't try REAL flying! Flying means going through the air, you just landed on the ground!", not realizing it's beyond human capacity.
