The only reason why is because people think of Joseph Stalin. However, people who jump to this argument are making a fallacy. They're disliking the man and what one leader (out of many) did, not the actual governmental system.

Still doesn't understand that all clans are dictatorships and that there is no forms of government on an online kids game.

When I think of Communism, I think of places like China and North Korea.
Cheap Products. Miserable Lives. Military Brutality. Horrid Working Conditions.
Every Communist country has resulted in despair and fear.

| It's good on paper but won't work in real life because everyone is selfish and self-centered. |

What squid said.
The pure ideal of Communism can't even work in the real world. |

You realize that Communism is an example of a system that is entirely unattainable? Plus, we can also make the argument that as a system it is not at all desirable.
Socialism is a better alternative than pure Communism. If you want a great example of this, equating the work of a nuclear engineer to that of a common field laborer is a great cause of a second Chernobyl. |

| China is powerful, they sell cheap stuff, make money. Problem is their people don't have the best lives, they can't speak to freely, now China isn't worse compared to others though. China has also weak military, they rely on numbers, they aren't as organized as people believe. |

All right, let's dissect this further...
Communism is a system of antiquated years past. A great example of that is the country of Vietnam.
The Economist described Vietnam as, "the most Capitalist Communist country in existence". Vietnam won a war that could best be described as a great victory for Communism and the USSR. Nowadays, Vietnam still encourages Communism in name only; for they have directed most of their efforts into stimulating foreign investment and private ownership.
North Korea is a backwater country that is a joke by any means on the international stage.
China is more of a dictatorship than it is Communist. After China suffered in the time of Mao, they are not at all eager to return to Communism. "Melt the steel cart, and say that we produced steel?" |

@Elite
China isn't pure Communist.
Thousands are above millions.
They get paid less than a dollar per hour.
North Korean military forces attack their civilians for not crying hard enough when their leader dies.
The Chinese government allows their civilians to be brutally attacked during work hours.
The Chinese government allows people to skin animals alive and treat them like dirt, just so they can make some money. They don't bother killing them at all.
North Korea is an isolated country based off of military power and fear. The only reason the civilian won't protest is because they'll be killed. They can't leave, either.
The Soviet Union fell in 1991.
Capitalist America has survived for roughly 250 years.
Every Communist country has far worse conditions than America.

China is communist, and according to many sources, will surpass America by 2030. Their economy has already passed Japan, they have new naval systems, cyber security, their free trade is resulting in exponential success for both America and China, and Xi Jinpeng has proposed a plan that will halt North Korea nuclear ambitions (which is important given that NK poses a threat to just about everyone). China is not a failed country, it is a rising major power.
Moreover, communism took Soviet Russia from a terrible economy, much due to the Great Depression, to a world power. It allowed a failing country to prosper. I don't understand how people can seriously say that communism isn't a working governmental system. |

| Vietnam is great for being communist, military wise, but their economy as in life style is horrible. |

Communism can only exist in a Utopia, a perfect society.
Even so, it still has flaws, despite a Utopia to be impossible.
Look at Communist countries, all of them. The citizens have no rights. No freedom to speech. North Koreans can't even leave the country. They cannot speak without being beaten. |
