I would like to have a real discussion on how to prevent an authoritative communist economy or one without the present of a dictatorship. The major reason (in my opinion) why communism doesn’t work is because of greed and power, to many individuals want to manipulate and control the populace. How can we prevent a dictatorship rule and still have genuine communism. Even if you actually broke up cities, towns, municipals into “Communes” you still have the human emotion of jealously and selfishness. I love the idea of Communism and I have wrote a ton on the subject but I can’t come up with the idea of “protection” from itself.

I like how Godfree Roberts stated this https://www.quora.com/profile/Godfree-Roberts

      Great post , thank you for this. I will keep working on this idea. The reason “why decentralized” is because if its “Central” I can take over it , decentralized meaning I can’t especially using a blockchain or and immutable database.

          I’m not worried about “big companies FANG” with centralized systems. I am more worried about a “centralized place to hack”. It’s almost a 10x advantage to takeover a centralized server (or server farm) then it is to via P2P. Unless I can (theory) infect one client to distribute a virus and that’s even if the security controls are the same for all clients. Regardless of controls for a centralized system , you have too many bugs , and if that server software isn’t modular it only take one RCE exploit for me to own it (in theory).
