>My point was that regardless of how many lies you will tell about the horrors of communism you will not change the fact that capitalism is dying.


It is not a lie that so far, every attempt to establish communism has resulted in eventual failure, if not disaster. Did the Soviet Union not collapse? Is Cuba not mostly in poverty? Has not China become more capitalist (but not less repressive)? Venezuela, anyone?

So far, you have not really offered any convincing case that either capitalism will collapse or that the true, best communism will somehow arise from the ashes. And so it seems more likely that whatever next attempt at communism occurs, it will either crash and burn or at the very least fail to turn into the communist paradise you predict.

All you have presented is a vague theory about overproduction to go on as "evidence" that capitalism will fail - it may seem obvious and inevitable to you, but you haven't even come close to being convincing to anyone who doesn't share your infatuation with that ideology. I'm not going to just take your word that capitalism is "inevitably" going to fail. (It's as if you think capitalism is like the chocolate factory scene in the I Love Lucy TV show and it's just going to go faster and faster until it buries everyone with consumer goods, and somehow nobody can ever turn it down, or even off.)

So maybe I can't "change the fact" that capitalism is going to fail, but I don't think you've done enough to establish that it IS a fact, and not just your hopeful fantasy.
