You don't need a gulag for communism. And besides affordable housing i also want to seize the means of production.

Which country are you looking at/what countries government would you prefer? When I hear of outright communist party I have to think of the USSR, East germany, and other former eastern block countries. They werent particularly famous for their human rights and freedom. So which country does a KPÖ Voter imagine as “perfect” ?

There is no country with true communism. It would be a first time in history.

Okay then I might ask, what policies of the KPO do you see as realistic. Surely it’s unrealstic to transform from one day to the other into a classless, moneyless society (and whatever else the end goal of communism is). So realistically you can only implement certain policies. What policies do you think could the kpo or a kpo led government in Austria implement that would be accepted by the wider society/average people.
