Communists don't accept that *some* wealth is a measure of value given to society.

They assume that *all* wealth is stolen justifying stealing it back. They underestimate how much force will be required. In part, because they underestimate how much social resistance they will encounter. If the capitalists can so easily steal, then so can they. But the capitalists are wealthy from free exchange, not theft.

Meanwhile the communists require excessive force to acquire and redistribute wealth.

This is why every communist experiment ends in tyranny.
