I think it's interesting that people always just jump to "communism is when no food," like there have been no famines or starvation under capitalism.
Especially when you can note that those problems with food production were basically immediately solved with the extremely deserved death of Lysenkoism.
Lysenko wouldn't be a problem in first place, if he bet his own capital on his hypothesis.
He also wouldn't have been a problem if Lenin had had Stalin shot in the head so he could be succeeded by Trotsky or Bukharin, but that's how it goes in a near dictatorship, I guess.
