Even without interference communism can never work, it's not how human nature works, it relys on everyone being on the same page which will never happen

do you realize that you are contradicting your statement? You talk of "human nature" as a law of nature, something that cannot be changed and has to conform every single time, but then you mention that people are just different lmao.

People who talk of “human nature” are white supremacists. The idea is that groups and people with different cultures are not human is what underpins this whole concept

A structure of society, which has so evolved, should not be changed or tampered with. For a stratified society is the inevitable result of the laws of nature, the creation of natural forces, and not the product of human determination. For that reason, the structure of society should remain unchanged.

[With] this perception of society came the frightening observation that the inferior reproduced faster than the average while the superior reproduced slower than the average. These two tendencies together must worsen the quality of the genetic substance of the entire race progressively with each generation. The result must bring a degeneration (Entartung) of the race as a whole.⁵² This leads to a “debasement” (Verpöbelung) of the race and a fall of culture”.⁵³

The faster than average rate of reproduction of the inferior was a serious menace for Lenz 1932 and the following racial hygienists such as Ritter, Vogel and Finger in the Third Reich 1937.
