That’s because it’s always a bad faith question and people who ask it are never interested in actually discussing it or learning.
It’s also a problematic question because different people have different ideas on what constitutes “success”. A free market capitalist will consider all socialist states to be failures, while a communist will consider all capitalist states to be failures. So what metric do you use to measure success?

I’m not even trying to make it “political”. I really want to know if they notice this or are they going with the let’s dream about it vibe.

I get that - I’m just saying that the pro-communism people know that they’re selling a lie. They know communism doesn’t work - or at least they’re too stupid to be able to put 2 and 2 together and get 4.
