Historically people think that communism failed and ended with the Soviet Union, nothing could be further from the truth.

While it is true that communism ended in Russia, communism has been present in the U.S. since December 23, 1913 when the Fed was founded.

Since then the degradation has been absolute until it became a social democracy and distorted the market.

The West has fully adopted social democracy which is the prelude to socialism, and some regions such as Europe are already fully into neosocialism/neocommunism.

Communism has been the great winner of the 21st century.

Still for many people is hard to explain or understand what you mean by communism, for example if you talk with some business man about nostr, bitcoin, freedom tech and Foss they will say you're a communist. Maybe it's better to talk about central planning and imposing on others some way of living.

While communism in the USSR was pretty blunt, it’s very sophisticated in the US now. The meaning of words has been changed intentionally to confuse us. What is a woman? A vaccine is no longer a vaccine. Capitalism is Communism.

George Orwell discusses the decline of language as the intentional manipulation of vocabulary to limit thought and maintain control, which he explores through the concept of Newspeak in '1984' and criticizes in 'Politics and the English Language'.
