A.) Probably because they know that Communism was never achieved in any country in the history of the world.
Reminder: Communism is a classless, stateless and moneyless society - No country in the world has ever had such a society.
In reality, Communism is a society like in Star Trek, not like in North Korea.
B.) As for the Socialism, it's just a path to Communism, but it failed because it's flawed.
Socialism is not the same as Communism, and it's still prone to corruption.
The most successful way to accomplish Communism in the future is the Scandinavian model of economy (Welfare state economy, mixture of market economy and social state).
The only successful type of actual Socialism is the Chinese Market Socialism (Combination of Socialism and partially free market).
C.) As for the ignorant people who think that Communism is something "very bad":
Stalinism is not a Communism, it's a totalitarian dictatorship based on a "Cult of personality" (just like the regime in North Korea), and most people don't want to live in such a restrictive country.
System like that was inspired by crazy egotists who wanted to impose their opinion on masses of people by force... it has nothing to do with equality, nor with the classless society.
People who are falsely displaying Communism like this are usually fascists and/or nazis, as well as the imperialists, royalists and capitalist - people who hate equality... basically, the oppressors, aligned with church (or any other religious/brainwashing institution).
Or you can try moving to a different country better suiting, this is America we run it how we like;if whatever you want isn’t happening maybe it’s something that’s not great enough to do.
“The grass is always greener” These ungrateful individuals don’t realize just how good they have it and they don’t realize how quickly they’d despair if our 50 stars were replaced with a hammer and sickle. Only those few who end up running things would be happy but the rest of the neo commies would soon realize that things were better when the 50 stars flew over our nation.
political extremists of any kind believe whatever they believe because they buy into the extremist propaganda that caters to them. Totalitarian come and go but it’s scary how even years after the collapse of a totalitarian regime, the propaganda of said regime still continues to influence people. That’s why we have neo Nazis and neo commies around.
Extremists never experienced the hardships of residing under a totalitarian regime. That’s why there’s plenty of occasions where people who actually lived under a totalitarian regime confront these ignorant extremists to let them know how stupid they are.
People in the US who are for socialism and communism are generally failures at life.

1. It would entail them actually having to sacrifice something, when they would rather the sacrifice be taken up by others.
2. They know these communist countries aren't good places, but they're pretentious enough to believe that they could do it better.
3. They don't understand communism. They think it's all about free everything; yet, don't comprehend zero economic growth, high taxes, and eventually shortages in everything from coffee to toilet paper because socialism/ communism kills incentive.
because they don't really understand it. All they hear is "free stuff" and they're in favor of it. This is why kids and the younger generations continually fall for it year after year. It sounds good because free is good to them. They don't know they'll be stuck waiting for 6 months to have surgery on their fractured hip bone they broke banging 12 dudes on Spring Break yet, because Bernie won't tell them that. They also don't realize that at the same time they're pushing for socialism and free shit for the masses, they're also fighting for open borders and unlimited numbers of people swarming our country to collect those "freebies". Do they really thing the US can afford to pay for everyone in the entire world to get a free college education and free healthcare on the US taxpayer's bill? Better get ready for 95% tax hikes.
The loudest socialists are actually angry working and low income people who are sick of being slaves to another person's profit. Also, people in the US who are fighting for socialism are fighting for things like universal healthcare, affordable education, housing rights, union representation, worker owned enterprises, the stop of lobbying in government from big money interests etc. If anyone has an issue with those things it is they who are on the wrong side of things.
And also, post satellite states influenced from authoritarian regimes are hardly the socialism people like Bernie Sanders, Noam Chomsky, Cornel West or people like me are suggesting.
Its funny how patriotic Americans can be on one hand but on the other try to argue that people who dont like it there should just move. What if they love their country just as much as you do? Also its surprising how evenly the support for socialism is across all income brackets, races and any other way you want to divide the groups.
America is the only land I know, I can only speak English well, and I have every right to be a socialist. In fact, there is a very rich history of progressivism in this country.
I am proud to spread and carry the ideological tradition of Eugene Debs -- a great American if there ever was one.
Carlos is just another useful idiot of the left. Only leftist revisionist history is taught in schools today, which carefully omits the horrors and biblical scale of murder under communism.
We need to retake our public education and teach actual history.
Because those who "love it" expect to be members of the Politburo, not of the masses who are forced to work under threat of gulag or death. Bernie Sanders is a great example. Loves Marxists, but is a millionaire who owns three houses.
Because they are incompetent idiots who, thanks to the modern society, can hide behind their cameras and talk shit and demand respect instead of just getting bitch slapped and put in their place.
It goes beyond this little faggot too, all the racial minorities, women, homosexuals etc. who are hating on white men nowadays are doing so thanks to the rights those same men gave them.
Because they would have all their money stolen from them and be sent to a reeducation camp. Best to just preach it from here and hope someday they become a political officer in the people's republic of America.
Round up everyone to the left of Mussolini and ship them to the Marxist Hell hole of their choice.
There can be no return, of course.
Counter question: If the U. S. love capitalism so much... why do they impose it on other countries without even asking?
I'm surprised he's still alive. Aids did not kill him? He needs a Penis in his bum to make him cough a bit more.
Simple, in those countries, everyone has to live under those governments, so the free shit they take from hard workers gets taxed to hell, too and they get nothing
Because they don't have to.
The countries with the highest quality of life are:
1. Canada
2. Denmark (socialist)
3. Sweden (socialist)
4. Norway (socialist)
5. Austalia
They should, but can they afford the transfer?
I don’t get it either
Greta be like
"HOW DARE YOU?"
Simply put... because they do not have to.
