Perfection
Utopian socialists and communists shared a belief in the need for societal reform to address inequalities and injustices inherent in capitalism. Both groups envisioned a more equitable and cooperative society where resources and wealth would be distributed more fairly. They sought to eliminate class distinctions and promote communal ownership of property, advocating for a system that prioritized the collective good over individual profit. However, while utopian socialists focused on idealistic and gradual reforms, communists called for revolutionary change and the overthrow of the capitalist system.
