true. communism only works when everyone buys into the system. Small communal villages work well, because everyone wants to be there, when people don't contribute, they are forced from the village

I wonder if the peoples in Afghanistan, Granada, Cuba, Iraq, Vietnam, etc. would agree with you.
It is required that all applicants to universities in Cuba gain a letter from the government (the "Committee for the Defence of the Revolution"😉[122] stating that they have a good "political and moral background" in order to apply. There have been claims that such letters are withheld because of an applicant (or relative) being politically undesirable. The validity of these claim or how often letters are refused is not easily verifiable and so there is no consensus on whether this amounts to widespread political oppression or just a few isolated cases.

But you accept that if the world did want communism, then it should have it?
