Communism is at least competitive.

Like I said, you already accepted my point. Are you doubling back on it? Or just being controversial for the sake of it?
I'm saying that one of the admissions you explicitly made was what my point actually was.
Like you said "the Soviet system never implemented the idealized communist system envisioned by Marx". I agree. That was my point. Changed your mind?
Your point is because communism and Marxism are different, therefore Marxism should be given a chance even though communism has revealed its fatal flaws. My point is however they otherwise differ, they share the same fatal flaws. So failure of one illustrates the unworkability if the other.
