Yeah because Communism worked so well for Russia, China, North Korea, etc. Communism is NEVER the answer, since it will ALWAYS get abused.

If I burn your house down, is that evidence your house "didn't work" and should never have been built in the first place?

Apparently worked better than the alternative . . .

Saying communism isn't the answer since it will get abused, when your alternative is capitalism, is like saying dating someone in recovery is a bad idea, and that's why you only look for abusive people who are currently drunk.
