Collectivism is THE ideal economic model. There is nothing more egalitarian than collective ownership of the means of production and no need for private property. This isn’t subject to debate.
But the right people haven’t been in charge. That is a failing of the people, not of collectivism.
No, it's fully subject to debate and you don't know what the F you're talking about.
Central planning of economies is the death knell. Communism and collectivism have never been successful anywhere they have been tried.
Command economies can't be properly planned because there is never enough data to properly distribute goods and services efficiently. It's impossible.
That leads to shortages, resources that go unused, unintended consequences, and demand destruction at a much faster rate than any westernized economy.
BTW, we haven't had Capitalism in the U.S. for one hundred years.
There's is nothing more efficient than the hidden hand of market economics.

I love how you tell PP that he doesn't know what the F he is talking about and then proceed to spew a bunch of utter nonsense not supported by any historical account.
I was the PP who wrote the post praising collectivism and planned economies and eliminating private property in favor of state ownership of everything, and “the only reason it hasn’t worked so far is the right people haven’t been in charge”.
I’m a troll. I was just putting the stupidest cliches I know of about communism down in one post, just to see if some idiot would agree with me - and of course someone did.
I need to dumb down my game for y’all. It’s pointless to be sarcastic when people start agreeing with you.
Well, the idiot is you.
I've lived the communist experience with a leader in charge who was, yes, a dictator but a benevolent one. Things worked for a very long time and people still look back fondly on the years that he was in charge.
You think WAY too highly of yourself, the self-proclaimed troll.
Then why did you come here? Why didn’t you opt to stay in your worker’s paradise where you can laugh and look down on us poor unfortunates who haven’t seen the benefits of a benevolent communist dictator, as you describe this person.
Why did you come here? Why do you stay? Why aren’t you going back?
There has to be some reason.

We just need a few hundred million more deaths to try out the communist experiment until we get it right.
Womp, womp.
People die everyday under capitalism. How many more millions need to die before it too is considered a failed system?
How many died of covid for profits? How many die in preventable workplace accidents for profits? How many die because they cant afford healthcare or their insurance denies them treatment? How many people starve and die on the streets of exposure because we treat housing and food as an avenue for profit rather than a human right? How many deaths of despair happen everyday due to the weight of living in a cycle of poverty required to sustain the capitalist system? Miss me with the bullpuckey.
Oh yes, communism where everyone will live in a magical utopia with free housing, free healthcare, free education, free childcare, and free everything. That's great on paper. Until reality sets in and someone has to pay for all of the free stuff. No one wants to work hard and no one wants to invent things if the state will always take it. You have zero incentive to do anything other than the bare minimum if you will get the same exact food ration as your lazy neighbor who does half the work. And that's why communism always fails. They have to point guns at people to work agrarian jobs to make sure they can even have enough food.
We will all be oh so great again when 84 year olds are forced to work backbreaking jobs on the farms in 99 degree weather like the Khemer Rouge forced their people to do while facing down the barrel of a gun. Their reward was 400 calories of plain rice to eat per day. But hey, at least the rice was distributed evenly! Never mind the fact that 20% of the entire population was murdered under Pol Pot.
But it wasn't real communism! Lol.
Think about times of disaster. What actually happens? People effing share and help each other. Resources get pooled and distributed. THAT is our nature. Not what the psychopaths that run our society tell you to believe.
It’s in our nature for a while.
Once the flood waters recede and the houses are rebuilt, a neighbor using my resources forever is just lazy and I’ll resent them.
Yep, just like my neighbor that thinks it's his parking spot in front of my house. So annoying. Left his ugly truck with a busted bumper without tags sitting there for over a year. Had to call the parking police. He didn't want to move it every once and a while. Might have to walk.

This is an enthusiastically pro-Russian and pro-Palestinian place.
And any deviation from the administrator's preferences is gone.
