Communism is the doctrine of the conditions of the liberation of the workers also know as Proletariat. The proletariat is a class in society which lives from the sale of its labor and does not draw profit from any kind of capital. There was one person who hated the treatment of the proletariat by the bourgeoisie(or factory owners/landlords), his name was Karl Marx.
Karl Marx didn't like capitalism. He imagined a world where everyone could be treated equally. He didn't want social classes to exist, he wanted every person to have the same amount of everything. Karl Marx believed that the governments wouldn't exist anymore because of the equal sharing and responsible society. Marx's idea was a great, but when it was brought out to the world people failed to accomplish what Karl Marx wanted communism to be.
Marx believed that the good guys were communists(or the workers) and the bad ones were the people who wanted capitalism(or the Factory workers and the land lords) . He thought that his ideas were the ideas of the future. a good example is Russia.
