I got such an aneurysm from reading the next reply (see link) I decided I had to let you all read this brainrot:
Also yes, .world is so low hanging fruit. But this one is slightly different.

I’m not so sure, at least to me he correctly sums up some Marxist thought here: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/23635227/11835855
You can stop reading there. Whatever accidentally correct points are made afterwards are just that, accidents. Their(the world poster) initial assumption is wrong. They assume that if communism is not achieved within a few years it was failure, despite Marx and Engels already stating that the transition towards to will take many generations. Communism is also not exactly something to “achieve”. Once the transition into the communist phase of development is completed, that phase too will change and develop. Precisely not a Utopia. Utopia is per definition perfect, ergo unchanging.
Not to mention that Lenin greatly expanded on these points anyway in State and Revolution in a way that proves Marx and Engels correct anyway, though I do wonder if the person you’re referring to has managed to read and purposely misunderstand that, too.
