Jonestown was held up as a benevolent communist community, with Jones stating: "I believe we're the purest communists there are."[38] Jones' wife, Marceline, described Jonestown as "dedicated to live for socialism, total economic and racial and social equality. We are here living communally."[38] Jones wanted to construct a model community and claimed that Burnham "couldn't rave enough about us, the wonderful things we do, the project, the model of socialism".[39] Jones did not permit members to leave Jonestown without his express prior permission.[40]

Why does it work at that level but not at a country level?

It seems in theory it could work but has been subverted like everything else jews involve themselves with.

Because like Marxism, it is based on the supposed good will/nature/morals of the people involved and the presumption that nobody is going to be a piece of shit. But all humans are flawed. When you based your political system on something that derives morality from anything other than God, youre going to have a fucking problem. The Jews worship Lucifer, and which is why they love communism so much.

Because a small number of people will care about everyone else. A large group has others that will take advantage of the situation and either mooch or enslave causing issues.
