    I’d like to thank Communism for making me realise how good I have it :)

          You think the workers own the means of production in North Korea? Cause I’m pretty sure that’s glorious leader who does

            You mean this one?

            The Workers’ Party of Korea (WPK)[a] is the ruling party of North Korea. Founded in 1949 from a merger between the Workers’ Party of North Korea and the Workers’ Party of South Korea, the WPK is the oldest active party in Korea. It also controls the Korean People’s Army, North Korea’s armed forces. The WPK is the largest party represented in the Supreme People’s Assembly and coexists with two other legal parties that are completely subservient to the WPK and must accept the WPK’s “leading role” as a condition of their existence. Kim Jong Un is the current party leader, serving as General Secretary of the WPK.

            But like I said, here’s a bit of AI for you, feel free to fact check it:

            Marx and Engels described communism as the final stage of human society, emerging after:

            Capitalism collapses due to its internal contradictions (e.g., class struggle, overproduction).

            Marx assumed this would happen naturally in advanced capitalist societies (e.g., Germany, UK) with strong worker movements.

            Instead, communism was imposed by force in pre-industrial, agrarian societies (e.g., Russia, China, Cuba) where the conditions Marx described didn’t exist.

            And as I said in my first reply: https://aussie.zone/comment/23631616

            How ironic that China/Russia/North Korea etc instead decided to leap on it and realise that it sucks instead

            or tldr: I’m sure capitalism will collapse any day now 🤣
