| SonartTry to remember that I'm a liberal, Soylent. Communism is a system of economics, that's all. Totalitarian Leninism, Stalinism and Maoism were political systems that relied on communism

In a sense i agree with you, communism doesn't work, but then again nether does capitalism.
Because both are philosophies of economics and both are corrupted by government systems whether it be democracy or totalitarianism.
The examples of countries that have tried but failed is because they tried to soon. They happened in countries that were already polluted by class systems that separated the ruling from the ruled. It is not possible to create a communist style of life straight out of a primitive agrarian society. They attempted to bypass the necessary stages of capitalism and socialism that is needed first to create an educated and productive society and the next a leveled out playing field between rich and poor.
