Honestly, it's not going great for "the greatest democracy of the world"

What I want to point out is that absolute systems (100% this or 100% that) don't work because masses of people are not 100% something

There's nothing inherently wrong in communism, it's a great idea, it's just not for everybody all the time, just like American hyper liberism is good for some and bad for many (redistribution skewed towards the richest, social injustice, expensive health care and all of that...)
