One of these days when one person too many tells me that Communism is a good idea in principle I'll grab that person, tie them and send them to North Korea to enjoy their principles.
What the fuck is wrong with these people? "It's a very noble idea", "it's great in principle, just the implementations are bad", "too bad it's incompatible with human nature". What's so noble or just in the idea "from everyone according to his abilites, to everyone according to his needs", what other outcome can anyone expect from it besides the deterioration of everyone's abilities and the growth of everyone's needs, and why would anyone consider it good, except for the people with very few abilities and very many needs? Well, another class of people who might like it are of course the people who want to be the ones who get to determine everyone else's abilities and needs.
And what's the thing with the people saying that human nature is bad because the noble idea of communism is incompatible with it? What kind of a fucker invents a political theory that is supposed to be a blueprint for a social system and that is nevertheless incompatible with human nature? Should we also use this principle on other things besides social reform? Maybe I'll start writing software that is incompatible both with the compiler and with the embedded server it's supposed to run on? Hey, while we are at it we can try to invent a whole programming paradigm that would be incompatible with computational theory! And imagine how much fun can be had with medications that are incompatible with human body's biochemistry...
