"if communism so good why does it never work?"
Your example is a proof that governments are rival gangs, not a proof that "Communism doesn't work because another consent violating gang won't let Communism be successful".
Communism doesn't work for the same reason all of the other political isms don't work.
They all begin with a heinous consent violation and the braindead authority worshipping enforcers of all of them feel justified killing you if you resist. That's criminal behavior if you or I do it. Magically normalized to be "not criminal" when political systems do it. That should get you thinking.
What could work for those of you who want it, is Voluntary Communism. That's where you stop using your consent violating political rapist tactics to gain members and form your Commie associations only with willing and consenting members. Go be a peaceful Commie, with willing people. Why haven't you done that?
The present paradigm political structures, the various "isms", NONE of them are ever going to work since they're all winner take all. That's a guarantee of failure since most people will be dissatisfied having their choices violated. You resist that, I resist that, your political opponents resist that and they should.
The one thing most people agree on is their idea is what they want for themselves.
Right now, the only way to get that is to drag unwilling people into your ideas and hope your idea becomes dominant.
What if that shit stopped? You get more of what you want, and others get more of what they want?
Voluntary Panarchy is a way to do that. It's the most peaceful way for humans to organize.
Co-exist can't be delivered by politics as usual. Literally impossible. Time to evolve!
