It seems like they believe they can be a gardener vs a farmer. That's the only bit that I see that isn't realistic.

In all likelihood they would be neither. With modern technology, we don't need a large percent of the population farming. I realize communists typically eliminate the intellectuals and kulaks—those who would actually have useful knowledge—first, but the smart things would be to have the current farmers keep farming. You'd likely be assigned to a factory to manufacture widgets for the rest of your days.

Do they eliminate intellectuals? The USSR and China seem to have avoided this. I don't believe most nations did this other than Cambodia and I will never see that shitshow as socialist.

USSR despised and fought the Intelligentsia, sending them to gulags
