    No. The goal of capitalism is to turn all things into commodities to be bought and sold. It has the growth pattern of cancer. Communism is a moneyless, stateless, classless society where would be free to focus on human-centred objectives like feeding and housing all people, making our environment sustainable, pursuing scientific and academic goals without need for a profit to be generated just for the sake of endless commodification.

      Utopias don’t exist and never will, that’s why Marxism, and by extension communism, is such a colossal failure.

        1. Just because reaching a true utopia is not possible, it doesn’t mean we should settle for an economic system that is literally destroying the planet.
        2. Despite what both conservatives and tankies want everyone to believe, marxism and comunism are not the same thing. All marxists are communist, but not all forms of comunism are marxist, there’s also anarchism, democratic confederalism and libertarian socialism.
