Ok you've read, but didn't understand. Maybe i should've expressed myself more clearly.
I didn't say dictators rule communism. It was an example of how every other system fails too. They all failed. Except capitalism, that thrieves perfectly. At least for the 1% and a few closely to it. For the rest it's probably the worst of all fails. One that isn't even obvious to the regular worker-drone.
And also you didn't mention a system that works great and a live example of it. Who cares about a theory? In theory everything can work great. I'm not saying any theory is bad. I say there is no execution possible. History and the current state seem like pretty good markers.
So yeah cool, USSR was fine. Great Gini-index and all. Good point. But where is it now? Dying in the hands of one tremendously greedy piece of shit. Partially fucked by previous members.
Theory can't compete with greed and/or religion. Unless you just love to theorize, smoke weed, and pretend it could be cool if only...
No insult meant. Probably better to have idealists than realists. I just can't.
