It began over two centuries ago comrade. It just keeps getting derailed by authoritarians that honestly believe that their ego is more important than The Revolution. We don't need a leader, at least not as a government position. We need a council that any member can be removed through the electoral process, so that no single person can amass power to the point of enabling corruption, and all of the oppressed proletariat can finally progress into "The oppression of the Proletariat," as Marx put it. Once a single civilization manages to democratically enforce "The Proletatiat's Will," we will see the first truly communist civilization that has existed since we destroyed The Six Nations.

They had a different form of communistic society that had lasted for at least 15,000 years. Archaeologists have found a lot of evidence that is 15,000 years old, China is a youngling to this civilization. The Six Nations claim they have been around for 25,000 years, with a stable government and society the entire time. There's some archaeological evidence that would support this claim, found somewhat recently in San Diego that proves that the common ancestor of all humans but not apes was here 250,000 years ago, but there's not a lot of conclusive evidence that we have found in the Northeastern US and Southeastern Canada, that dates back further than around 15,000 to 16,000 years.

Either way, China wishes it was "The Oldest and longest lived civilization ever." They are at least 3 times younger, if not 5 times younger than a civilization that isn't perfect by any means, but they provided stability by ensuring that "no law could/may be passed that didn't/doesn't directly benefit all of the children of the next 7 generations."
