    Regarding Communism, from my understanding, the core value isn’t that all property is held in common, but that all production equipment (building/machines/resources) is held in common. I know that there are decades of debates in the communist community if private property should be allowed at all and to what degree. E.g. I think most of the communist agree that the cloths I’m currently wearing are mine.

    I’m not really convinced by the split in Economic Systems and Political Philosophies. There I’m more for a split in the in kind https://politicalcompass.org/ is doing it. In an economics and a social dimension. Then Social democracy should be in the economics dimension and Marxism is a mix-up between both.

    • economics dimension: Communism - Socialism - Social democracy - Neoliberalism
    • social dimension: Fascism - Conservatism - Liberalism - Anarchism

    Regarding Anarchism and small scales/never seen great success: In the past there have been two areas that have opposed these claims, especially when considering the causes of failure

    And they are still existing Areas heavily influenced by Anarchist ideals like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rebel_Zapatista_Autonomous_Municipalities and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rojava
