Communism is bound to fail because no central planning commitee is currently knowledgeable and powerful enough to allocate all resources perfectly. It's not about lazyness or greed, it's about the simple fact that in each commuinst society, even if everybody is doing their best to actually keep shit running, there will be massive waste and over and underproducttion of goods due to fixed prices. A free market economy quickly adjusts to supply and demand, within days even, while central planning can take weeks or months during which necessary goods aren't produced or overproduced food goes bad.
Couple that with allocation of ressources which have multiple uses and you have disasters waiting to happen.
That being said communism could propably kind of work in the Elder scrolls since most small villages are self sufficient anyway and major resources are still easy enough to divide up, namely wood, iron and stone.

Dwemer had to be communists. How else can you explain the layout of their cities?
Not a single private house/dwelling.

THE MEANS OF PRODUCTION BELONG TO THE NORDS

Yeah this is pretty accurate. I think if there was a perfect AI governing then communism could work. The problem though is people are radically different and will rebel at the slightest hint of discomfort (physically, mentally, etc) so really communism is a Utopian idea that will never work
Xavier Nelson
Communism can only work in a book, even if you pulled it out into a fantasy world's world you'd still have to completely shit on Communism to fit real world scenarios and cause/effect at which point the armchair Communist declares it's not real Communism and it's yet again relegated to only existing on paper.

Wrong! True communism never been done and when it's done we will have an utopia
Julian Richardson
Yes, just remove corruption of human mind.
