Communism is deeply rooted in our culture. Took Christianity: richs are banned from heaven (at least if we don't find a way of passing camels trough the eye of a needle).

An envy is a very powerful force in humans. Communism promise of leveling us with all the "have more than us" is truly unbeatable. Sweet revenge!

And championing comunism ideals make us feel good about ourselves at a very low individual price. Communism includes making others pay for our virtue signalling. Unbeatable too.

Communism idea is so powerful that it is embeded in a lot of "democratic" constitutions.

Abandoning communism (not a bad titlte, by the way) requires much more than good reasoning and good lessons on economic history. It is something we need to feel, not to think. We are all communist at heart

Good luck!
