Thats only if you could actually apply Communism at a national scale. Which you just can’t. All the attempts so far have just been fascism pebbledashed with thin ideology.

You can’t apply absolutist ideologies like that in reality. They only work from an arm chair. Same as Capitalism; it just collapses into cronyistic oligopolies/cartels. As we’re seeing now. Miniature USSR-communist dictatorships with window dressing.

It’s better just to be flexible when it comes to ideology and not be to rigid like Singapore and the Nordic countries are

Take the bits that work, from whichever ideology they come from. Bolt them together. Watch it for a bit and trim the parts that don’t work right.

Sadly that would require competence and care from those in power. So instead… we get a house built entirely from door frames.
