The original point was that the theory of communism is voluntary. It isn't. It isn't just that the practice is wrong. I wasn't just defining it in practice, and he in theory. I was defining the outcome as consistent with the theory. They aren't separate in the context of our discussion. In philosophy, this is almost always a technique of evasion. We aren't talking about a scientific theory that needs a proper experiment to be proven. We are talking about the idea that humans can somehow prosper without private property rights. There is no practice in which that theory is good or correct.
