In the West, there was just a large stratum of the middle class, which is not very rich, but has something in terms of ownership, so this very majority of the middle class will not support communism. In Germany, too, there was a Spartacus uprising, but most of the former soldiers, officers and just civilian volunteers organized themselves into freikors and were able to brutally destroy the Communist revolutionaries. Because there was a large middle class in Germany.i always read that the russian revolution was successful because of WW1 and because of the fact that the russian monarch's were backwards as fuck. the communist revolutionaries managed to convince the poor russian peasants to kill their own monarchs (and obviously a lot of non-russian ethnics played their roles)
whereas communism didn't succeed in western europe because they were more liberal and did a better job helping their poor people (because of capitalism and colonialism).
anyways we live in a liberal world order now were fiat isn't tied to gold any more so the governments can just print more money to solve their social problems. or at least it allows the liberal governments to continually kick the can down the road until something calamitous eventually happens...
