npub15th6y0m8c79aq5qg2arvpw955jr4c5cvvvvkrxz70tnh4n282dzq2a6nvx (npub15th…6nvx) Waiting for things to get SO BAD that “the masses” will embrace your ideas is immoral and callous. And even then, no one knows how your ideal communist utopia will actually work.
As far as I can tell, communism assumes that world is supposed to take this fictional Hegelian leap into some new imaginary ideal society that just appears out of nowhere.
Marx did a bang-up job of critiquing capitalism but he and his followers did a horrible job of imagining a realistic replacement.
