He specifically mentions that it will occur in the richest most developed and technologically advanced country in the world.

It was one of the criticisms of China and Russia, they tried to create communism without a large base of workers, map actually created his own theories based on farmers.

That being said, his writings haven't aged well at all, reading it with a modern lens you can see how aged it is.

You're almost like the personification of the mocking "everything bad is communism" meme.

>Remember again that in a liberal-democracy nothing is forbidding the communist from getting together with their communist friends and forming a commune.

You don't think I'll be arrested for seizing the means of production?

Communism is more than just sitting in a commune, it's an entire economic system. The same way that capitalism is very different from feudalism.

If you function in a society you're cooperating. Which Liberal isn't cooperating? A society without cooperation is just anarchy.

You can compete in a Marxist society too?

The soviet Union had plenty factories, beaureu's and individuals all competing with each other. I'm not a Marxist but that's just established history.

Flip side, cooperation is what made complex life possible at all. When archaebacteria and eubacteria merged to become the first eukaryotes we got all complex life.

Without cooperstion the entire planet would still be filled with single cell organisms.
