marxism would be a better term instead of communism as true communism requires no one having economic or political power over someone else
Marxism, and certainly ~~marxism-leninism~~ (stalinism) are so diluted by the bears of hex and the grads of lemmy.
But Marx' evaluation of the might of the kapital is important, the thing is to find a way to do politics without money or the loudest shouters.
It would, but communism on a decently large scale needs someone to allocate resources. And that jon comes with a lot of power. Which brings us back to marxism.
I'm not sure why large scale decision making has to be deferred to a single person instead of a large group. Tbh that's one of the main problems with current large companies. Why not conduct a fucking vote, not about who should make the decision, but about what decision is made.
That just isn’t how scarcity works unfortunately
Communism is a part of Marxism. Communism is the utopia, aka the fantasy world, of Marxist ideology. It'll never happen because perfection can never be achieved.
