I call it sticking to my OP and ignoring your ignorant baiting. Go find someone else interested in your BS.
Why is it so?

Marxism is essentially Socialism that doesn’t work.

No, that most definitely is not right. Marxism, or at least the concept promoted by Karl Marx, didn't foresee the total ownership of society by the government, as we usually think of the Soviet Union. It was much more limited than that.
There are nations that employ elements of socialism quite successfully, such as Norway. The vast oil reserves are nationalized and provide income and services to the population instead of enriching a tiny group of aristocrats. I suppose this has elements of Marxism but I don't think it's the same thing.
Why is it so?

Marxism is just the improper term for
Socialism, they are the same thing. And it
does work, just in a dysfunctional way. It's an effective system. Dystopian, sure, but effective.
