Absolutely not. If my point was communism = bad, then I would not have said it requires an honor from humanity they simply don’t have. Ergo, communism is a rather honorable system, afaic. The problem is people will fuck up ideologies. Ideologies/idealities are not realties. In some cases you might get some stability for a few generations, but given enough time it will fuck up. And this goes for capitalism too, and pretty much every other form of government. It has nothing to do with communism specifically and is not because of communism.
Communism is fragile. It does work at the very small scale (a kibbutz) but the rotation of power requires that everyone in the chain needs to relinquish it at some time.
Central planning isn’t great either, but maybe that can be offloaded to a dispassionate computer.
“Yellow cat or black cat, as long as it catches mice, it is a good cat.” Adjustments need to be made according to the circumstances, just how it is. Though a lot of times, unfortunately, what needs to be done isn’t what happens.
At this current time, I’d still be really hesitant to trust things to a computer. Both because humans can still mess with it and also that computers can be faulty themselves. Then again, we already have a lot managed by computers, so who knows, maybe it would work.
Oh, yep, that one is my bad. The general point still stands, though.
The point you were making that communism = bad stands.
But the post was about socialism (and misrepresenting what it is).
