Is it real communism? Do you actually know anything about communism or Cuba?

  He was being sarcastic, obviously, because that's what the proponents of Marxism/Communism say about the hundreds of failed experiments with it. They "did it wrong" or it was "real communism."

    And do you know what real communism is? And who tried and failed at it?

      I realise arguing with people on the internet is pointless. If we've had a whole host of attempts at communism, real or not, and they've all basically trashed the country, it's probably time we put that theory on hold. Either no one knows what "real" is, or they can't get it in place. The residual risk is too high - likelihood high, consequence fairly catastrophic.

        This seems like an easy way to avoid actually having to learn anything about the subject. Perhaps there’s a reason you’d prefer to dismiss the entire subject out of hand, rather than spend a few minutes trying to learn something about it.
