Communism Has Never Worked"—WRONG! Raymond Lotta in Talk and Q&A

Political economist Raymond Lotta challenges the widespread claim that communism has never worked, setting the record straight on the Russian and Chinese revolutions of the 20th century — their genuine achievements, their errors, and how capitalism was ultimately restored in both countries.

The talk draws on decades of revolutionary theory to argue that a truly liberating revolution remains possible, and draws a sharp distinction between what Lotta calls real communism and the reformist politics of figures like Zohran Mamdani and the Democratic Socialists of America.
