    My argument is not “look how many attempts have failed” but “look, of all of these many attempts, every single one has turned into a kafkaesque nightmare”. At this point it is not even clear that “successful communism” is something that can exist in our world

    On the other hand, while many (depending on your perspective you might even say most) capitalist systems fail, there are absolutely some that work ok. Of course nothing is perfect in the real world. But the life of say a danish person is not only materially well off, but also free and full of dignity, which was true of none of the experiments in communism

    countries in which the Dictatorship of the Proletariat failed to cede power to the working class and establish a socialist economic structure

    Oh, so like every single other place that tried to implement that deranged system? Thank you for this very important distinction.
