That actually looks more of a communist system than a capitalist

In a communist system, the oligarchs, the royals and the rulers (often the same people) own close to 100% of all wealth, power and control all rules, laws and regulation and do effectively 0% of all work.

The problem with you, as I've seen constantly in your comments, is that you devote your perception of communism and capitalism on rigid definitions, rather than the actual results when put into practice.

For example, My employer does far more work than me. He comes in several hours earlier and leaves several hours later, 7 days a week and his income is only 3-5x mine.
Not all companies are Amazon and google. In fact almost none of them are, statistically speaking

'There are no oligarchs, royals, or rulers in communism'

well you may want to go and say this to every communist system that has ever existed then..
Also I have drastically more wealth than any member of the working class in any communist nation --We all do

It was all just state capitalism......and a communist nation physically cannot exist because communism is stateless

Capitalism is hell though. Especially if you're autistic

Well if a time machine ever gets made, be sure to go visit every single communist nation on earth thats ever existed and then feel free to compare.
My friend who lived through the soviet union always said the russian people were strong because the stalin purged the weak for being a drain on resources. If you find this system hell then you wouldn't last under communism. Gulag, firing squad, prison or homeless was apparently how things usually went

Communism is nation less

I had a friend who said her grandparents were communists and were still tortured by the Soviets.

She's a communist

'I had a friend who said her grandparents were communists and were still tortured by the Soviets.'

Yes, communists torture anyone they don't think are functioning cogs in the machine. Almost everyone in the gulags were communists for example.
Again, what you think communism is, is a dictionary definition...what communism ACTUALLY is once its put into practice 100% of the time, is what you see in history around the world.

I mean if I invented an ideology that said 'swiggity-ism means everyone will be rich. look at the dictionary definition!' but then in every case everyone was poor, it wouldn't matter what I claimed it was, what mattered is what actually happened.

Your employer still makes more than you for some reason and what more work do they do than you?

After reading your replies, I don’t think you do.

Maybe an extended stay on a communist country is what you need to open your eyes
