You know, that's why the term "modern" was put in there. And if you're saying how it'd be referring to the nature of humans, how could it be capitalist? Capitalism is a fairly recent idea itself. And communism is not based on a centralized enforcement body, that was the "dictatorship of the proletariat" that Marx theorized to suppress counter-revolutionary dissent before it's dismantled once it's not needed, and the vanguard party used by Lenin. The Soviet Union itself was obviously a very authoritarian state, and the idea of communism involves a stateless society, so they cannot co-exist. |
"communism is not based on a centralized enforcement body" "the idea of communism involves a stateless society"
then how can you have a communist system?
why would people submit to being relegated to one class if there is no coersion to force them to do so?
"And if you're saying how it'd be referring to the nature of humans, how could it be capitalist? Capitalism is a fairly recent idea itself."
the idea of people working for themselves to provide for themselves is a recent idea? so what do you think humans have been doing to survive from the very beginning?
