    This is a trick question, the real answer is that there weren’t real communist countries

    It's the final refuge for tankies. That and the old "social democracy only works by exploiting the global south" canard.

    “social democracy only works by exploiting the global south” canard.

    Yeah, I could see finding this unconvincing if you haven't read theory, history, or were just cool with benefiting from imperialism

    Soviet Union? It was uncommon for a family of 6 to live in a small apartment. You can even see it in old soviet movies where apartments would be separated by curtains (common comedy trope).

    I'm sure there were extra houses after all those people that starved to death.

    In Communist countries people starve to death because of famine, in Capitalist countries people also strave to death because of famine while still starving to death after famines are over because they cant afford groceries.
