We literally get together every Tuesday to kill ten bosses, then fairly distribute all of their possessions. Then spend the rest of the week killing smaller bosses and doing the same.

Back when E.V.E had all thr psychic weight there was a goon guild that egalitarin sharing of the means of production and they kicked ass all over the servers.
Was it FALGSC? Possibly, it was in space. The analogy breaks down, but seeing tbem flurish through copoeration planning and self directed activity is big communism good vibes
The Goon SFSR Model has since been adopted as standard among every (functional) alliance above a certain member threshold, after they decisively won their war against the 1337 Band of Brothers.
Also, EVE players are fucking insane and doxx over petty ass pixels.
I think this skews the math slightly. Sort of a selection bias problem.
Not a point against Communism so much as the composition of the MMO Proletariat. But it does speak to why this might not be the most accurate model for modern civilians.
Pretty much every major alliance worth a damn in EVE has copied that model from goons to great success. You get people dropping two-thirds of their entire liquid capital to buy a single ship to go blow up another alliance's station, even when they know they'll get blapped in about three seconds if they get picked as the focus fire target at any point during an hour-plus-long battle, because they'll get all the money back in a couple days at no cost to them other than their time and participation.
About half of my net worth in EVE is sitting in ships in my hangar that are prone to exploding with essentially no warning during a fleet battle, and the SRP (Ship Replacement Program) is the only reason I'm willing to spend all that money.
