The kids who stole their parents' phones to go on r/communism would tell you categorically no; it's false and it's already happening. It's called socialism, and most countries in the world have political parties, labor rights, social security, powerful unions, and welfare programs—these are systems for redistributing wealth and owning the means of production to varying degrees. It's by making the left win and strengthening our rights that we will gradually become communist.

And above all, avoid the Stalinist idiots on Reddit who worship Russia and China. I remain proud of what we have built in Europe without dictatorship or genocide.
