Ending world hunger is tackling corruption in chaotic places in the world. Not an easy feat. Just look at how fast the taliban took over when the US pulled out, or how corporations (capitalist and communist alike) buy from slave labor states
Definitely strive for it, but pointing at economic differences is circle jerking
What is a communist corporation?
Star Trek is socialism not communism. Minor differences but different. You choose your fate, not the system.
Communism and socialism are big ass umbrellas that encompass many philosophies with a good amount of overlap. Sounds like you have more of a problem with central planning than with communism. So do a lot of communists

I’m honestly surprised that it didn’t happen right after Brexit. There was definitely talk of unification so people in Northern Ireland could continue to be a part of the EU and visit the other parts of the island with no Troubles. (Pun absolutely intended)
If it’s all prophecy then what comes next: the eugenics wars, the second civil war, or world war 3?
Let’s fuckin GOOOOOOOO
Scarcity is a reality problem, not a capitalism problem. There will always be scarcity.
This is actually not true. There is enough food, shelter, and capacity for basic amenities for everyone currently alive to live comfortably. There are logistical challenges in getting the goods to the people who need it, but that’s also technically possible.
We just can’t all be driving Teslas and living in McMansions
There is only “enough” food if you enslave farmers and take their product.
Or just pay them like normal and stop throwing away most of what we buy from them.
Pay? There’s no ‘pay’ anything in a post-scarcity scenario. Nothing has to be paid for. If it’s truly post-scarcity anyway.
Sure that’s one way to do it. How do you see it working?
I don’t. There will always be scarcity unless there’s some way to completely automate the entire process of farming and delivery, plus maintenance on all the equipment, plus all energy needs.
I don’t really see that happening. At least not for 100 years or more.
