Just as communism has been proven to fail in the past so is capitalism. It has been warped to something terrible for the common worker. I think this communism thing is just a way for people to vent their frustrations with the current system. Honestly as long as their is a corruptible person in charge no system will work as intended. And unfortunately everyone is corruptible.

Idk man modern life is better than life in any past civilization

Capitalism with a social safety net may have flaws but it's better than anything else ever tries

Modern life in wealthy capitalist countries is subsidized by massive wealth extraction from the global south.
