As far as i know, communism from an origin and tought as it on the theoretical plane has TWO Big problems and those are:

  1. Comunism tends to not know what actually is needed to produce

in a capital-less society, being, on this ideal no money, nobody can't really say what its needed, when, and how, hey maybe democracy can do a rough equivalent to that BUT not as good,decentralized and acurate as money itself.

  1. Comunism has a problem on incentives

Incentives, can be divided into by benefit,you can get something by doing other stuff, or you do that other stuff in hopes of avoiding a not so agradable scenario.

The thing is that communism, being a stateless, and buisnessless society on its end goal, only has to incentives, happy chemicals for doing something, its a matter that fullfils you or you directly need or social pressure, either good or bad, there is no other ,mostly, third way.

So I want to know wether how could it work in a modern,globalized society and how those two problems can be solved or not and on the how of the posible solution.

Btw, I want to know if im being rude or something,and my english is not that good but im genuinelly curious about how the left can solve these problems.

The Bruderhof Christians are communist in the way I understand it. They live in community with all assets belonging to the community, and it works for them.

I don't think anyone really wants that as some universal scheme, mostly people just want to have way more worker-owned businesses and still have an economy based on money, just a fairer one.
