Communism will work, in a post-scarcity world. The problem is they believe that socialism is the path to that post-scarcity world. They fail to realize the only path to communism is through capitalism. In many ways capitalism is the only economic system that is compatible with the ideal form of communism.

Communism is not a journey, it's a destination, a one world post scarcity utopia without need for politics
"Communism" is like saying "Shangri-La", it's the "Workers Paradise"
Socialism is the journey, that's how you get to Communism someday in the more distant future
the Socialists want to make a Great Leap Forward, and this is how they end up killing a hundred million people

Re: Dark Days Ahead
Do not confuse Capitalism with liberty; it’s simply an investment strategy compatible with liberty. The economics of liberty is free markets.
Liberty and socialism don’t mix, and liberty and Communism are the antithesis of each other. To accept socialism as a goal is to turn your back on individual American liberty.

most people interpret is as being a system, that a Communist government governs by Communism
I was simply pointing out that is not the case however
Communism is a mythical Shangri-la that you reach sometime in the future, by way of Socialism
in the Soviet Union for example, they did not say Communism is at hand, it was aspirational
Socialism is the system, the Hegelian dialectic is the mechanism, Communism is the supposed result in the end
often people will say China is not Communist anymore, they are Capitalists now
the reality is more that the Communists will use any means necessary to reach their utopian Shangri-la
the Chinese Communists are typically oriental, so they call their futuristic Shangri-la "Harmony"

Re: Dark Days Ahead
again, it all goes back to the German philosopher Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
Hegel propagated the Myth of Human Progress
in essence humanity is progressing towards an ultimate steady state, which is a post scarcity utopia
and in fact, the general public believes that myth and mostly has since the end of the First World War
so the first stage in the Hegelian dialectic is Progressivism
you will note that liberals stopped calling themselves that and starting calling themselves "Progressives"
it became a bait & switch, because liberalism & progressivism are radically different
Progressives do not necessary embrace the Protestant Enlightenment, and that's how you get to Woke

Re: Dark Days Ahead
Out of perversity, a lot of people prefer authoritarianism if it keeps somebody else from having more than they do: wealth, travel, intellect, experiences, even love.
People are base at their core: it used to be that institutions like, church, school & fraternity, would quell the worst impulses of envy, resentment & covetousness, but Media is fanning those fires, and the traditional institutions are under heavy attack and can't fight back.

Re: Dark Days Ahead
when you say that, then you yourself are embracing the Hegelian dialectic
the dialectic requires two opposing camps
if for example the masses simply ignored the Woke, the Woke would have no power
the only source of their power is enticing white liberals to engage in the Hegelian dialetic
at that point the Hegelians have already won by successfully defining the terms

Re: Dark Days Ahead
think of Vietnam, this is a classic example
in actual fact, Vietnam was not existential, America could have ignored it for the most post
the Communists however successfully baited America into an Hegelian dialectical war in the jungle
America as the opposing camp then lured the Communists into the same trap in Afghanistan & Cambodia

the Cold War itself was an Hegelian dialectical war

Re: Dark Days Ahead
Americans often assert that socialism is un-American
but what they really mean is that Hegelianism is un-American
reason being it was an entirely European paradigm
because there was nowhere to go in an overcrowded Europe
in America on the other hand, there was a place to go to escape from it
Americans went west, leaving the cities behind, to live free on the frontier under God
