Which country has the best and worst Communist Party?

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

Sequel to this thread.

Best: United States
Worst: Greece

[BundouYMB]

In the modern world?

Best: Japan (in proper context [which is much more complicated than it might initially appear] they are actually a very good and effective party.)
Worst: South Africa (I mean the SACP, the corrupt, worthless non-party within the ANC -- I rather like the EFF.)

[Lachi]

Japan has the best, because they are actually competent, and are actually quite popular.

Best: Chile
Worst: China

I'm not sure which is the best, although points to the Cyprus Communist party for actually winning free elections of significance.

Obviously North Korea is the worst.

This specific measure would apply for Moldova and Nepal too.

[Mr. Reactionary]

Worst: all of them

[(Still) muted by Kalwejt until March 31]

Best: Japan (maybe China)
Worst: North Korea

This ain't complicated.

[OSR stands with Israel]

Worst: all of them

[Arturo Belano]

Discounting Trotskyist organizations,

Best: India, specifically the CPI (Marxist), Chile, Spain, Nepal, Japan

Worst: North Korea

[Chunk Yogurt for President!]

All Communist Parties are terrible, but I've got to give credit to the Japanese Communist Party for getting candidates elected in a country that has prospered immensely from Capitalism.  From what I've heard from my Japanese friends, there isn't much poverty there.

Is this asking purely about the descendents of the Third International? Because their diverging dates are pretty interesting.

[ApatheticAustrian]

today? the totally unknown austrian one, getting things done on a local level in the second biggest city of the country, again and again.

[President of the great nation of 🏳️‍⚧️]

Best: Japan
Worst: Depends on how you define "worst." North Korea's has enacted the worst policy, the CPUSA is probably the most pathetic.

[Unapologetic Chinaperson]

China, for both "best" and "worse."

Best: Post-Mao CCP. Pulling up hundreds of millions of people from poverty while creating a (potential) superpower from a smoldering ruin is no small feat.

Worst: Mao-era CCP, as its policies made/kept China a smoldering ruin in the first place.

Italy was the correct answer for as long as it had one.

[Filuwaúrdjan]

Italy was the correct answer for as long as it had one.

This reminds me: neither they nor he were particularly keen to draw attention to the fact, but you have precisely one guess as to who the PCIs principle point of contact with the DCs/the entire Pentapartito system was during the 1980s...

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

Japan's is way better than average but it's still sort of creepy and there's probably better out there somewhere. North Korea's is obviously the worst.

Let me guess. Andreotti?

[ApatheticAustrian]

i love andreotti.....he is the kind of villain you usually only meet in fiction.

[Filuwaúrdjan]

Let me guess. Andreotti?

We have a winner!

There's no such thing as a good communist.
