i think you’re going to be waiting a while?

the last countries that were communist have turned capitalist or at least mixed market

have any countries actually become communist in the last 50 years?

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

You mean those fascist neo-feudal states that existed mostly in North Asia?

Communist countries are something that can't exist on the real world.

Capitalism turning shit does not mean instant communism. Bit too US mindset.

True but a communist/socialist system isn't really possible in the world mostly thanks to the fundamental human nature of greed and power over others

Partly agree. Capitalism has some self-balancing elements that makes it so functional that communist systems totally ignored and fell in a black hole of inefficiency. Problem is by it's nature capitalism generates inequality. Everything falls almost magically on the same graph. Distribution of wealth will always remain the same. If you throw more wealth in the system, the graph will just grow bigger but retain it's shape. There will still be a mass of piss poor people and small elite that controls most of the wealth. Things like tickle down is a gruel joke.

If there will ever be system of equality it has to be well designed and tightly controlled, monitored and swift to react, without any chaotic elements.

...and then there is the greed and corruption you mentioned.
