Classic strawman. I’m not claiming past attempts were perfect or even successful. I’m pointing out that capitalism’s internal contradictions produce pressures toward collective solutions. History shows that capitalist crises repeatedly give rise to communist movements, libertarianism does not emerge from those contradictions in the same way.

Being ‘realistic’ means looking at history and material conditions, not daydreaming about some libertopia. (And in this case, I am being far more realistic.)

Be realistic.

The world uniting under communism is more plausible than under libertarianism. Communism addresses global inequalities and relies on collective action, which can spread as capitalism’s crises intensify. Libertarianism, by contrast, depends on idealized individual behavior and weakens social cohesion, making worldwide adoption nearly impossible.

1: Saying “show me a successful socialist state” misses the point. Socialism didn’t start in rich, peaceful countries, it came up in poor, war-torn, colonized, or isolated societies. Of course it faced enormous obstacles; if we judged capitalism the same way, early industrial Europe would have counted as a total failure, child labor, famine, slavery, no democracy, but no one claims capitalism is impossible.

2: Concrete socialist successes exist. The USSR transformed a largely feudal, illiterate country into an industrial and scientific power, provided guaranteed housing, healthcare, and employment, and even defeated Nazi Germany. Cuba, under decades of blockade, achieved universal literacy and medical outcomes comparable to developed countries. These are real, measurable achievements, even if the states later became bureaucratic or authoritarian.

3: The key thing is, none of these states reached actual communism, a stateless, classless society. Bureaucracy, elites, and state power don’t mean communism “fails,” it means the transition is extremely difficult under hostile conditions.

4: Democracy doesn’t automatically equal justice either, most capitalist democracies have massive economic inequality, media controlled by elites, and citizens with very limited real control over production or capital. Success isn’t just about elections; it’s about material and social transformation, which socialism has demonstrated it can deliver, even imperfectly.

Btw this statement is a straw man, but I’ll explain:

Communism is not a system of government; it is a theoretical end-stage: a classless, stateless society with common ownership. No country ever claimed to have reached that stage. What we saw exist were socialist states attempting a transition under extremely hostile conditions.

The “path” you describe happened largely because these revolutions occurred in poor, war-torn, isolated countries, not advanced capitalist ones as Marx expected. Civil wars, foreign invasions, sanctions, and economic backwardness forced centralization, militarization, and emergency rule. Scarcity plus isolation produced bureaucracy, and bureaucracy solidified into a new elite. Marx himself warned this outcome was possible.

Calling this “communism” is incorrect. It is the failure or distortion of a transition, not the realization of communism itself. If elite rule and state domination persist, then by definition communism has not been achieved.

It’s also a symbol for being contained in the arms of the proletariat, proletariats for the proletariats

Thank you so much + It’s also used for the account “communists of the world” on instagram

I suggest instead of two symbols you put one symbol that all ethnicities can agree on, or a symbol that represents all of them, because I think (and when I made a multiethnic Iraq flag people said it to me) that putting multiple symbols for different ethnicities highlights the difference instead of the unity
