Also you have to justify how it isn't going to become a welfare state, instead of just simply shitposting in the hopes of it suddenly convincing everyone here. Your No True Scotsman bullshit won't fly here.
Anarchistic socialism has proven itself to be incapable of functioning at a country-wide scale, only incredibly small communities like the Amish have managed to make it work well, this is the sole reason why whenever ANYONE non-leftist mentions "socialism" that they never mean Marx's retarded imaginary utopia.
Authoritarian socialism has proven itself to be incredibly inefficient, thus bleeding itself to death in the long run. The only two options for this sort would be a welfare state or slavery, this too has been the result in practice.
The middle ground is what we have right now in the West, which is working just fine :^)
And before you suddenly start shouting "b-but it wasn't REAL Communism", the definition I am using here is "the redistribution of goods, services and means of production from the upper class to the lower class", which is what it boils down to in any case. Vague shit like "Workers own the means of production" is poorly phrased because it can be twisted any way you want to deflect criticism without addressing it.
