It *is* puzzling.
But I think it contains the SAME germ of truth as exists also in the famous
statement about "Ideal Communism", which I think Marx and other theorists wrote
about:
"Ideal Communism is a state that is approached, but never achieved."
Appreciating the difference between real and ideal is what makes the two
statements bear some sense.
I don't agree with either of them.
