      or vietnam or cuba, both actual fully communist states that will be very happy to accept some western comrades.

      Seriously if I was an actual communist, I’d migrate to these countries immediately and start helping out the cause, both are very lovely places.

        Vietnam is too capitalist (seriously - despite their official ideological alignment, they’re one of the most pro-free-market countries in the world) and too anti-China, while in Cuba they would have to actually deal with the fact that rampant government mismanagement by their unchecked anti-democratic ideology has created an economic crisis. And God forbid they experience hardship.

          It would actually be a great economic learning experience for MLs to visit VN. Tons of cottage industry and relatively free trade, very little regulation on construction and rental so things are generally inexpensive. I got the impression that despite still being nominally Communist and very definitely a single party state with issues around free expression, the government doesn’t mess with things that are working following market liberalization.
