Communism fails for the same reason all Utopian schemes fail.
They all would require absolute power to implement, which inevitably leads to theft, murder and suffering, which, of course means that they are no utopia at all.
Nor do they mimic human nature, something pretty critical when designing an economic and political system.
Any system that precludes human nature in its calculus is doomed to fail.
I saw what Communism did up close and personal in the 80's while visiting the USSR.
You are either young, a fool, evil, or all three. It is absolute poison.
The most murderous ideology ever conceived.
Believe me, it was plenty "real".

Like the pink unicorn, it doesn't exist.
Stalin killed, imprisoned and starved millions.
You are a complete idiot, and live in a fantasy land.
Churchill did not starve millions or imprison millions for political reasons. That is nonsense.
Yeah I’m sure all those Kulaks were so happy to be lifted out of poverty.
As is typical, a government big enough to provide for you like livestock, can slaughter you like livestock, and they do.
I suppose you will be singing the praises of Pol Pot next.
I think the Ukrainians would argue the early stages weren't so hot either.
I guess it's easier too lift up countless people out of poverty when you can use the resources left over from the countless people you just buried.
But eventually, they always run out of other people's resources, both the living and the dead.
