As I said, just because his name is Angus and he calls himself a Scotsman, it does not make him so. The DPRK calls itself democratic, too. Are we to hold it as the exemplar democracy, and claim that democracy is such a failure?

No, I do not. It helps to remember that "Communist country" is an oxymoron; a Communist society is a stateless one.

In this stateless society, who decides how the group gets what it needs, for instance food, clothing etc? And how do the group knows what is best for each member of that group?

Usually the answer would be? The rules. Who applies the rules? The machine. Who made the machine? The party. Who rules the party? Most ruthless psycho-dick ever. Thus its profen that communism, basically is one big cooperation ruling the earth, and shall forth be called googlnism.

I really hate such discussions, they are so pointless, because they look at the state they want society to be in and just erect a cathedral.
