It can work. It is just, Russia and China completely fucked it up and made it a shunned system to practice.
It can work within a species that isn't inherently selfish. In theory it makes perfect sense. Trust a bunch of humans to keep everything just and equal and watch as the dickheads make sure they get more stuff/power than others. Iterate it for a few generations and you'll get your average dystopia.
Though selfishness isnt a core trait of humans. But there will always be selfish humans, to secure such a society one would need an apperatus to manage and contain these dangers to society aaand oh wow we are back at a state
While I wasn't too exact, this is what I meant by a bunch of humans. Not all of them are that selfish, but it happens frequently enough that I would consider them (yes, them) a selfish species without a second thought.
