This is like the opposite experience I had. Everyone said capitalism is bad and I get down voted to die if I say I disagree.

If communism worked, there would nation using it. There's none.

Mix of capitalism and communism is best. Go too far in any direction and you're fucked.

Give me a good, real world example of a working communist country. The difference between propaganda and education are facts. That, or removed by mod me.

well, it's not that communism in itself is bad, but so far every implantation of it was bad

On the contrary, Communism has done wonders for the working class. Skyrocketing literacy rates, life expectancy, housing rates, access to education and healthcare, expanded democratic processes and political participation, and massive reductions in poverty.

"But... but.... communism had never been tried!"

"That wasn't real communism!"

"Read the theory!"

"Communism is the solution to climate change."--- proceeds to industrialise Aral Sea leading to shrinkage; and built the Three Gorges Dam leading to the massive deforestation and loss of biodiversity in flooded lands

Communism, the movement, has been tried and is continued to be tried. Communism, the end status of a global worker Republic devoid of class antagonisms, has never been reached. These are completely acceptable and compatible statements.

This brings us to the third: read theory so you don't think this is some "gotcha" anymore.
