As far as i know, communism from an origin and tought as it on the theoretical plane has TWO Big problems and those are:

  1. Comunism tends to not know what actually is needed to produce

in a capital-less society, being, on this ideal no money, nobody can’t really say what its needed, when, and how, hey maybe democracy can do a rough equivalent to that BUT not as good,decentralized and acurate as money itself.

  1. Comunism has a problem on incentives

Incentives, can be divided into by benefit,you can get something by doing other stuff, or you do that other stuff in hopes of avoiding a not so agradable scenario.

The thing is that communism, being a stateless, and buisnessless society on its end goal, only has to incentives, happy chemicals for doing something, its a matter that fullfils you or you directly need or social pressure, either good or bad, there is no other ,mostly, third way.

So I want to know wether how could it work in a modern,globalized society and how those two problems can be solved or not and on the how of the posible solution.

Btw, I want to know if im being rude or something,and my english is not that good but im genuinelly curious about how the left can solve these problems.

    lots of people will have different opinions about this, and many will disagree with me, but i think the inherent problem in today’s world is progress itself.

    progress brings with it all bad things. it makes people greedy, because now suddenly there’s something to gain. it makes people fierce and fiery and competitive, and suddenly your life isn’t chill anymore but you have to do something, you have to work a job, because otherwise your neighbors are gonna complain about you being a lazy slob and not contributing to society somewhat, and suddenly you’ll find yourself surrounded by angry cousins in your peaceful back-yard that you thought was yours, because they’ll demand that you work (just like everyone else), and “who doesn’t work doesn’t deserve to eat” and all that.

    truly, progress is like the atlantic, it might bring us to a shiny new place but the journey itself is wild and fearsome. what i’m saying is that the best way to stay out of trouble is to never have left the ocean in the first place, probably.
