Which is why cities and municipalities have the freedom to adopt communist ideals.

They do? Since when?

The USA in total is far too large and diverse to make it work country wide.

Where is your proof of this?

neither culturally, politically, or geographically homogeneous.

You sound no different than the right-wingers pretending that "cultural (ie, racial, since right-wingers don't actually have the foggiest clue what culture is) homogeneity" is what makes countries successful.

It would take an all powerful small ruling class forcing compliance in order to make it work on such a large scale.

Lol! Says who? You?

So your argument is "NO YOU!!"?

Many small collectives in the US adopt communist values, like Menenites, Mormons or Amish.

My proof is that, despite the overall majority of social media users stating that communism is the way, it hasn't been adopted country wide because the actual majority of people don't want it, aka a difference in ideology, aka non homogeneous population.

So saying that every single person in the USA that doesn't subscribe to the same ideology based on their own personal experiences and surroundings isn't just a personal political identity, it's racism?

Says historical accounts of communism being "gently forced" onto a non homogeneous population.

I see that you are just one of those people that thinks everything is tied to race. Saying a population is non homogeneous is not racist. You are putting that spin on it based on your own preconceived ideas.

Your argument is as flat as month-old Coke. The vast majority of people EVERYWHERE did not want liberalism (or the capitalist pillaging and looting it apologized for) - it had to be forced onto people through brutal colonialist violence - yet here we are, aren't we?

I see that you are just one of those people that thinks everything is tied to race.

I'm not the one that "tied" everything to race, Clyde - ask your "western" ancestors why THEY fetishistically "tied" everything to race to such a degree that their oh-so-precious "western" civilization is incapable of existing without it.

Saying a population is non homogeneous is not racist.

Clyde, defining "sameness" purely by RACE is white supremacist.
