You believe in a society where wealth and resources are distributed equitably, leading to the eradication of poverty and the establishment of a classless, harmonious community.
Neo-Communism is a political ideology that emerged in the late 20th and early 21st centuries as a response to the perceived failures of both traditional communism and capitalism. It is a modern interpretation of the original principles of communism, which were developed by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels in the 19th century. Neo-Communism seeks to address the criticisms and shortcomings of traditional communism, such as the lack of individual freedoms and economic inefficiency, while maintaining the core principle of a classless society where wealth and resources are shared equally.

What kind of legacy would you aim to leave in a world where wealth isn't a measure of impact?
@9KT97D61yr1Y
Just be a good moral individual with huge emphasis on self-reflection and self-improvement. Also, realize that you cannot control other people or their actions.
@9KXZPLT1yr1Y
This viewpoint is a selfish one. While it is good for the individual, it says nothing of legacy nor improving society as a whole. By placing a huge emphasis on morals and improving so that society can become more just and equitable, we can influence others while not controlling their actions.
@9KV7RKQ1yr1Y
To destroy other countries and take everyone down.
@9KT8Z39Republican1yr1Y
I would tell them its about your worth is what matters.
@9KT8FSV1yr1Y
Just trying to be a decent person there is not always a option to be a hero, but you can't take out everything that is wrong with others if you wont make a impact either.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What is a primary challenge you would expect to face in a system where resources are evenly shared?
@9KT92Q91yr1Y
Some people need different resources than others, or even just more of a certain kind of resource. Perfectly even distribution wouldn't work, someone would need to be making sure everyone gets what they need.
@9KTSKGVProgressive 1yr1Y
This is just blatantly true. Some people need extra in order to do what they're best at. Other's need extra to survive. I'm not sure there's any political system that inherently disagrees with this.
@9KTBBR21yr1Y
Corruption of power as we've seen in every Communist nation.
@9KT8QF81yr1Y
The fact that some people might just want more than what they have and they might try and take what isn’t there’s so they can be the one on stop
@9KT99YK 1yr1Y
none because the resources are being evenly shared
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How do you see the role of innovation in a society where needs, rather than market demands, drive production?
@9KFFHPK 1yr1Y
Innovation is hindered in a society where there is no incentive to do so. The needs of others in a society provide less reason to overachieve than the demands of a market.
@9KJ9B6G1yr1Y
People don't care about immediate progress because the ones in need of it need to rely on the people who create it, who don't see a need in it because it doesn't affect them
A communist society is characterized by common ownership of the means of production with free access to the articles of consumption and is classless, stateless, and moneyless, implying the end of the exploitation of labour.
@9KFFG9J1yr1Y
I support the needs of a society rather than the demands.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How would you envision a celebration or holiday in a culture that doesn't glorify materialism?
@9JQ9DCQ1yr1Y
I think any holiday of any religion should be acceptable and legal.
@9JQ9Y2R1yr1Y
Holidays were never about materials, they are meant to be time you spend with your family and friends. It's a time where you get together and just enjoy each others company.
@9JQ7WXR1yr1Y
As an Anti-Communist, I can still see anri-materialism as an easy thing to celebrate, such as religious or folk traditional holidays. You do not need an oppressive regime to enforce good will.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
If your successes couldn't be quantified by wealth or possessions, how would you measure them?
@9L4TWNP1yr1Y
@9L4TLHQ1yr1Y
I never measure by wealth or possessions cause that's stupid. I measure by how truthful something is, how it makes me feel, how it will impact my future, my relationships with people.
@9L4T93K1yr1Y
It would be measured by the amount of happiness it brings.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
When making group decisions, how would you ensure all voices are heard equally?
@9JL3K671yr1Y
have a place for people to go to and share their opinion. more like voting but just to go write a paper sharing what they have to say.
@9JL3V29Independent1yr1Y
By having everyone voice their opinions then having everyone else voice their opinions on that persons opinions, So just a long discussion.
@9JL37JL 1yr1Y
Making sure everyone has the right to speak and with this, voting is necessary.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How would forming closer relationships with your neighbors change your perspective on sharing resources?
@9J3L5LZ1yr1Y
It would be good because you know them and it's not the government who is taking your money.
@9J3KXWG1yr1Y
I don’t know, purely personally, I imagine it would be pretty slit
@9HT5NPLProgressive2yrs2Y
It would most likely make it easier because they are people who i have a relationship with
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Is it fair for individuals who work harder or smarter to receive the same as those who contribute less?
@9HCS9FW2yrs2Y
It depends on the situation. For example, if one is working harder but has a criminal record, it is mildly sensible to equate them to those contributing less.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How would your life change if everyone had equal access to healthcare and education?
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
If everyone's basic needs were met, what kind of dream could you pursue without financial constraints?
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How would societal values change if the main goal was the betterment of the community over the individual?
@9KSMQNN 1yr1Y
I think with Neo-Communism it gives America as a whole a chance to feel and be successful along with others by your side and it will lead to less greed in the world
everyone would turn on each other more easily but would have a bigger and better community homes n others but the people would not be as smart or have the right to even do so.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How would you envision a typical family dinner in a community that emphasizes shared meals and collective nourishment?
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How could we address the needs of vulnerable populations in a world where everyone is supposed to be equal?
Allowing god given rights and learning to speak with these individuals and allowing them chances to speak publicly on issues they face
@9LJFFDY1yr1Y
the real world dictates that nobody is equal. You are born a hedge fund baby and get to reap the rewards of everyone else's labor and evade the taxes normal people have to pay.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How do you envision the role of education in a world where knowledge is shared and accessible to all?
@9LFVLHR1yr1Y
It could be dangerous, especially in a world where it is accessible to all ages. Personally, children shouldn't be allowed to learn about gender or sexuality until they are much older. I think this will prevent parents from making that decision. Also, could the information be manipulated if everyone has access to it?
@9LFVJ9H1yr1Y
A basic standard of education should be taught but also students should be taught how to critically assess the truth of information and how to learn on their own.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What might be the advantages of learning from a variety of jobs rather than specializing in one, as in traditional job rotations?
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How would 'success' stories be told and what attributes would be highlighted if we lived in a society without wealth-based status?
They would be told in what different things people can do like sports or activities.
@9LFVZN61yr1Y
ITs should matter how happy you are but if you don't want to work to make money then you have no right to complain
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How would justice be served in a society committed to equality for all?
@9KC2GTM1yr1Y
Utopia..could we actually reach for this when people are so selfish
@9KC2GQBIndependence1yr1Y
People would be served justice equally except the government would decide what's equal.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
If creativity was not driven by market demands, in what new ways could people express themselves?
@9JL4PHF1yr1Y
However they want to, artists in the Middle Ages were not motivated by money but by the pursuit of their craft.
@9JL4GP31yr1Y
I don’t see the link (or implied link) between communism and creativity. Some of the most important art and literature came from Soviet Russia. Creativity doesn’t have to be driven by market demands (presumably we mean investment here), government can (and should) replace all private investors, creating a more equitable innovation and creative process
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What kind of leadership would be necessary in a world that values the collective over individual power?
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How would the concept of ambition be redefined in a society where everyone's basic needs are met?
@9LFW65CRepublican1yr1Y
Ambition would become increasingly rare in a society where everyone earns the same amount of income despite the difference in job. It would however provide the opportunity for current low income individuals to consider ambitions rather than survival.
@9LFVY8D1yr1Y
honestly if everyone were to come together with an agreement
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How would your aspirations be influenced by living in an environment where cooperation is valued over competition?
@9KS62QG1yr1Y
If everyone wanted to be on the same economic level then it would be fine, but it will never be achieved
My aspirations would be damaged as it would reduce competition, presumedly hurting my salary and reducing the value of my skills.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How do you think your daily life would change if you lived in a society governed by Neo-Communism?
@9H6XGVP2yrs2Y
no capitalism is still the best machine ever created by humans. With that said there should be some checks and balances for when companies become too large and powerful.
@9CJ6CB61yr1Y
They already are, there’s no checks and balances that stop them. Capitalism itself is immoral, both capitalism and socialism can create a good society, but socialism is meant to come AFTER capitalism has served its purpose. It lost its purpose in the 1900s.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Do you think a world without any form of social or economic hierarchy is realistically achievable, and why or why not?
@9HLMGYY 2yrs2Y
It’s not realistic because human nature Will impulse you to do differently. It might be achievable with great effort, patience and compliance. Achieving such thing cannot happen in this country overtime, specially with the idea that socialism (I believe this is what is referred by neo-communism) restricts all freedom. I believe building wealth isn’t bad, as long as everyone receives a fair wage under said rich company
@9CJ6CB61yr1Y
Human nature can change, it’s not a constant. We used to think human nature was violent, intentionally destructive and so self serving that the majority of people would kill without mercy. That’s not true today, because as the environment changes, the people in it will change. If people live in better conditions that encourage morality and kindness, while discouraging greed and corruption, then they will change as such. Human nature arguments are ridiculous, all it means is that we can’t go too fast.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How might a system of equal wealth distribution change the current dynamics of school popularity and cliques?
@9HJ89LGLibertarian2yrs2Y
children of apparatchiks will have exclusive education opportunities and social opportunities. Others will suffer under mediocre or worse education or opportunities.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How would you propose to ensure that a Neo-Communist government remains truly democratic and not authoritarian?
@9H6YJ9W2yrs2Y
Bring back public hanging, swift justice . If you don’t do the job of the people who elected you . We put you in prison or hang you for treason . Do not take our rights away .
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
If you could create a new society from scratch, what would be your top rule to promote equality?
@9HH6VBZIndependent2yrs2Y
Everyone makes there own money no taking from others just because you don't want to do anything with your life.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Can a classless society truly exist, or are social hierarchies inevitable even in Neo-Communism?
@9H6SRBH2yrs2Y
I think social hierarchies will form no matter the official stance of the government. However, the government should treat everyone equally, not honor any titles or other any socially imposed striations or classes.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
Describe a scenario where collective decision making led to a better outcome than individual choice.
@9KHZ6391yr1Y
A collaborative workforce can lead to more success than failure.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
If everyone had an equal voice in your community, what issues would you address first?
@9JCBY7H1yr1Y
the homeless people need food, medicine, and water
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Would you be willing to give up personal luxuries if it meant everyone could have basic necessities?
@9H3NVC52yrs2Y
I would but only if the person is a genuine person that needs things not wants , and would take advantage of the fact that im providing personal luxuries
