Why wasn't I completely in agreement with the absolutely passionate blow job he gave communism in that one episode
Why wasn't I enthralled by all the nothing that happened
Why wasn't I compelled by a protagonist written as if he had extensive brain damage
Here come it's a mystery
I absolutely rolled my eyes at the communism episode but that is probably the one situation it would actually work. Small community size and you can't lazy around because winter/zombies. It'd absolutely fall apart as they expanded past the one town but it was at least tolerable to Ant Man's 3 communist ants save the day.
I agree with your other points and I think alot of it is because it was a videogame to start with. I don't really think you can transfer the mediums when one requires so much hand on interaction.
The Jamestown colony started as a commune, and they eventually cannibalized each other during the winter, no zombies required.
The largest unit communism can realistically work is the immediate family, and anyone with siblings will tell you it doesn't even work then.
80/20 principle happens in all groups large enough to have an 80/20 split.
Jackson? Jackson isn't communist, no matter what Bill says. It's an intentional community, as is the camp of the cannibalistic religious freaks.
Does Bill say anything on Jackson? I'm referring to Tommy's diverse baby momma who says the line "We're totally communsists". Whether it's a intentional community or not I think is moot since they put in that whole line and interaction for political reasons.
Same with Ant Man 3 and the whole the communist ants save the day bit.
It's an easy mistake to make. The characters may differ in their own motivations.
