How 2 pure communism?
Before I start this topic, I ask you to restrain yourself from political argument ("communsim gud", "communism bad", etc). I just want suggestions about making communist "empire" closest to original idea of it, I'm not following actual politics. Be reasonable

So, I like how Stellaris portrayed Communism the way it meant to be originally. Utopic society of absolute equality and stuff. And I wonder... How exactly could I build my nation to be closest to original communism, before it was changed by subsequent party leaders, and those who earned reputation of tyrants?

Any suggestion is welcome

I'm along for the ride, might get some good information both about the game and real life.

My man, ride or die. Remember people any suggestion is welcome.

In the country of origin it never happened. Focused around illiteracy in 1917 is was already derailed in 1920. More important is: it has become a tool of fear in the west, to motivate defense of private wealth by all means.

It's easier to link anti-communism to this game. It looks like a fanatist purifier, laying waste to South America, Indonesia and Africa.

How to play a communist empire.

1. Start with the government type "Fanatical Egalitarian".
2. Declare war on any empire who isn't.

the killing fields is but a meager replay of what Russia did to itself.

Best communism is the Culture, which seems somewhat like:

1 - Technocracy (Fanatic Materialist)
2 - Utopian Abundance (Egalitarian)

Beeline Synth Leaders and put them in charge of everything.

Can't sacrifice your ideals to human nature if your leaders aren't human.

EDIT: ... and since you're a Materialist, you're not just a Communist, you're a Godless Communist, which is obviously better.

I just want to point out that Karl Marx wasn't a Marxist.

"What is certain is that [if they are Marxists], [then] I myself am not a Marxist" - Karl Marx
I need to keep this bookmarked, this is some interesting material to use...
