      Because communism counts on the assumption that humans aren’t greedy fucks who are gonna abuse the system anyway they can. A place where everyone is equal? Even the ruling class? Literally impossible

        communism/anarchism pressuposes a system with no leaders or ruling class.

        humans look greedy as fuck because most of us live in late stage capitalism. humans are actually unique in our unprecedented ability for empathy and cooperation. (and its how we lived for most of our history)
