    Communism is a socioeconomic structure that promotes the establishment of a classless, stateless society based on common ownership of the means of production and property in general.

    In other words, individualism does not exist, everything you work for, is taken by the government in order to maintain the "common good". Communism is a fantasy concept that fails to grasp the reality of human nature.

    Simply put, communism is an ineffective form of government based on the utopian ideal that everyone should work for everyone and everyone should be provided with everything.

    A communist is anyone foolish enough to believe it could work.

    That words have been used in a very wrong way , for example the "Communist Party " of the"Soviet" Union are the new "Capitalists Class " of Russia.The same applies to China, Albania, Romania, Korea,East Germany,etc, etc,

    But We, Bolsheviks, know that we will succeed, History works for us.

    Communism has been consigned to the dustbin of history. What's the point of wasting our time rehashing what it was?
