Because communism failed under Stalin does not mean it is nonviable, because even in cases contemporary to Stalin during and after his rule we have snapshots of communist society that functioned. This is to suggest the Republican model of government is untenable because Oliver Cromwell named himself more of a dictator king than the ones he supplanted.Every time that a so called communist nation has been proclaimed it has been hijacked by power hungry dictators. Every single ONE!

Capitalism will eventually end. BUT it will be replaced by something that will not be pure communism. I am not under the delusion that capitalism will go on forever because we have seen economic structures change over the centuries.

Actually a lot of communist regimes that weren’t dictatorships were taken over by the US Government or literal Nazis and guess what, it turn those societies into even worse shitholes
Grenada, the German Revolution, revolutionary Catalonia, the Zapatistas(which still exists), the Hungarian Soviet Republic, Shinmin Autonomous Region, the Paris commune
None of them were stateless but were more or less communist
If a Republic is so great why is only Venice one and Switzerland so impoverished?”Well, there is one thing they have something in common that might shed light on that, as many have said wasn’t a good idea, but didn’t listen.Also, many other places of thrived, yet no “stateless” communist society has, since they always just replace it.With a dictatorship on the bodies of political opponents, useful idiots and the innocentAlso, funny how Distribution of wealth in those “stateless” societies, always seems to end up in the pocket of the leader and a few of his benefactors and friends. It’s almost like it’s a complete lie to get greedy people on their side, then throw them in a ditch when they start wondering where their share of the wealth is.Just a little forethought.

So what you’re saying is, it can’t work.I’ve often heard it said that constantly trying something and expecting different results is the definition of… Something.I forget what.

A nation state is the cohesive identity, society, and culture of a large group of people. It’s effectively a group identity that identifies itself as a distinct people and nation. Which means a nation state CANNOT exist without a societal structure. Which is its backbone to keep everyone together. Communism wants to destroy the state which effectively means that to do so it needs to destroy the societal framework upholding the nation-state itself.
