Then how do you explain primitive communism?
At the first steps of humans, it's a historical fact that everyone shared food and no surplus of goods was maintained because it was instantly consumed.

Of course not, it was the whole tribe that tore the offending individual apart and ate his liver in perfect harmony and unison, everyone got the same sized piece.

Tell me why all primitive tribes still living the stone age had a chief when they were found by outside civilization?

Food and such was shared, but the indivuals had personal possesions that they each valued and was buried with, you see this in old burials and their rituals involved.

If these tools were not personal possessions they would of been buried without them and further used for the tribe. Being buried with them shows that they understood the personal value to each individual within the tribe.

>>131042259
There could be personal possessions when the rest of the tribe didn't require them. If the rest of the tribe required them, the persons would naturally share.

For example, a personal thing could be a rock, a pretty piece of wood or something of sentimental value to the person, that the rest of the tribe didn't require at all for survival.

>tribalism doesn't work

Then how do you explain primitive tribalism?
At the first steps of humans, it's a historical fact that everyone shared food and no surplus of goods was maintained because it was instantly consumed. These hunter gatherers were nomads and had no such thing as a commune where they built shelters or farms.
>>
>>131041183

Thinking communism can be expanded exponentially is the true error of the ideology. Yes sharing equally can work in small isolated groups where it is easy to build trust and personal relationships (families or small farming communities) thinking it can work across 22 million square kilometers of muslims, christians, inuits, asians, europeans, turks and other assorted groupings just because you tell them to. that is the problem here. Communism has not worked because people need to see direct impact of their solidarity and how it affects them personally. People can share, but only for the good of themselves, you have to show them that, not tell them while they wait in line for bread
>>
>>131041183

You do realize most tribes were small and functioned just like a family does right?

In contact with other tribes they would trade.

Eg: 20 clay pots for 10 squirrel pelts.

Which is just proto-capitalism in a nutshell

Do you know that?

Do you have any evidence individuals just altruistically shared goods in that way?
Or did Og offer a temporary loan of, let's say, Og's finely sharpened spear in exchange for a set proportion of the subsequent hunt? 'cause that sounds like capitalism.
Or did Og offer up his spear out of fear the Grug would simply smash his skull open with a big rock if he didn't? 'cause that sounds like tyranny.

>>131041183
they also raped, killed and ate each other... so hey maybe you are right maybe they had stalin style communism, still dont get why you want that to return but hey to each their own i wont attack you for your masochism. lol
>>
>>131042732
Tools and weapons were found with engravings and markings on them personal to the individual within the tribe. would these tools not be better used by others that are alive in the tribe for the survival and prosperity of it? if not then they dont sound too communistic to me.

If a tribe leader took control of others tools out of threat of violence then again that isnt very communistic. Food may be shared but just because a resource is shared doesn't mean that the tribe follows communism, early man would of been more interested in survival which would mean the best way of survival would be for the group to remain strong.

Communism will be possible when we have enough robots to offload most the work to them, and the work of the robots would be cheaper than the work of humans.

>>131041183
communism breaks down when the people doing the work can't shame you for being a lazy fuck. AKA when you hit population levels of like 20-100k at which point people just become faceless and you don't immediately recognize them. You need a sense of community to make it work else people are just climbing over one another to accumulate as much resources as they can because they figure "other people are probably accumulating more and you're probably only a small fraction".

communism has failed and yea the biggest reason why is it is dependent upon violent revolution, that results in the centralization of power. Don't go eh china cause its shit being propped up by shit trade deals.

Every time violent revolution has occurred it results in to totalitarianism with one exemption. The American revolution was successful because it had a congress before hand, it established its democracy and its governing principles.

Maybe and I stress the maybe communism might work under a constitutional republic so long as the process is peaceful ie through the amendment process. But what is the likelihood you commies actually use peaceful means.

When I visit my aunt and uncle, they share their food with me. That doesn't make us communists.

They didn't survive because of human greed which didn't only exist in capitalism but was created by it (since greed didn't exist in primitive societies).

Thanks for highlighting a major flaw in communism that even Marx and Stalin acknowledge.

Human being act based on self-interest (greed as you call it) and the only way for communism to work is for a new man, the Proletariat Man to emerge that works not for self interest/greed but out of selflessness and duty to fellow comrades.

But guess what, that man doesn't exist and until human beings evolve to no longer care about themselves communism will always fail.

The point of free market capitalism is to have a set of rules/principles in place that would have people work for their own self-interest while at the same time not violating other people's freedom/property.

scale OP. scale means everything.

as an analogy, water is a lethal poison to humans when you drink too much of it. in the right quantity, you die from it 100% of the time.

on the other hand, cyanide, one of the deadliest poisons on earth, in a small enough quantity, is found in many healthy foods, especially nuts and seeds and causes no problems for people when they ingest it.

the scale of the "communism" you suggest so small, happening on a disorganized, tribal level, and the human population so low and so spread out so as to make that practical, that the associated problems with your ideology did not have the chance to manifest. the "poison" was not found in significant enough quantities in the blood to destroy the whole of the organism :(

if it's "it's so close to human nature" OP then why the fuck when you want to enact a communist regime / system of government do you have to kill millions upon millions of fucking non compliers and dissenters to make it happen? and why are the rest mostly held in line through fear and military might? oh wait "that's not real communism tho", right? because "real communism has never been tried", right?

maybe that's because "real communism" is so impractical and so ANTITHETICAL to human nature that it will NEVER be able to happen, and if it ever did, it would have to happen organically by definition, otherwise you're just another genocidal stalin, which it will NOT.

maybe this belief is 10/10 on the retardation scale and you should reconsider it.

There are evidences of individuals so heavily wounded that they could bring literally no advantage to a tribe (crushed jaws, skulls so damaged that the individual probably became retarded, missing limbs, crushed spines with subsequent paralysis etc) where they saw that the cicatrization process in their bones is so advanced that it proves they were still fed by the other members of their tribe for years, some of them were even found in tribes that had sign of malnourishment

And then civilization started and another system had to be invented. So fucking dumb. You want to live in a communist society that does not break down? Sure, form tribes of 100 people and go live in the wild. You fucking idiot, you give the answer yourself but are too dumb to understand it. Your intuitive idea about how a civilization should function is just a leftover instinct from when we lived in hunter-gather tribes.
Humans also love sugar right? Because before civilization sugar was rare and needed to be consumed when one got the chance. Not in this day and age, today, peoples love for sugar is just a leftover instinct from before humans because civilized.
