That is nonsense. Communism has no relationship to the size of the population or land area of the country. Communism at it's core is the perpetual tension in our species between the male and the female value systems in our tribes. Oversimplifying things grossly: * Males value meritocratic hierarchies and individualism. Conflict is resolved quickly and swiftly either by re-positioning people in the hierarchy or with a fist fight. * Females value systems are communal with relatively flat hierarchies with 1 or 2 females that rule the roost and keep all the other women in their place. Female conflict is resolved through perpetual social warfare through reputation destruction with the severest threat being kicked out of the social group. Before men invented birth control and HUGE economies of scale that allowed women to earn money and live on their own, their female social warfare was kept in check through the pressure of the responsibilities they had to their families in addition to the fact that there was no birth control and female sanitary solutions were not readily available. Basically men lifted the evolutionary presures on women by relieving of sexual responsibility, men created sanitary products that allow women to travel as far and wide as they like without the extended support of a female social group and men created economies of scale that allow women to actually make money safely allowing them choice to live outside of the evolutionary pressure of the family. Communism, largely, is a result of that. It is the ability for a HUGE group of people to get fired up in their resentments and take on the female social warfare strategies in order to offload female risk on to the society as a whole. Those that will chime in with, it's the jews, I agree but their role is very specific and it is a role within this context. In my opinion anyway.
