When discussing nearly anything as it pertains to accomplishing communism a few things must be borne in mind:

• There are now over 8 billion people on the planet. Mass death is unacceptable in a transition.

  • This is especially true as it pertains to agriculture transitioning to a communal agricultural program overnight would lead to mass death

The goal of the transition periodtherefore must be to balance these things: we must actually take steps to transition to communism while preventing mass death and maintaining approval of the masses
