The Jesus people did it, is an argument I have heard and even say a TV special that invoked it, I also never have seen any evidence it was true.

As to any other time it has been tried, it was never every toss in the money it was, let's all go to this place. And every time that happened it failed, quickly.

Corrupted christianity pushes tithing and socialistic notions. These people who call themselves christians are grifters and state worshipers at best.

Jesus Christians, whom i have personally met and broken bread with, follow only what is spoken by Jesus to do in the bible. To join them you literally hand over your wealth. They have been going for several decades.

I think he is talking about the hutterites and the Bruderhofs. There might be other groups but those are two of the bigger groups that I know of. Socialism like this really takes a shared ideology beyond socialism as the goal.

Yup !

Not true, there are several groups that share in common with no individual wealth and have been reproducing for several decades.

I like personal property, toothbrush, and all that, but what you are saying is just not true. American style personal property and even the concept are not universal nor even obvious.
