It's a predict the exact year that capitalism finally collapses on itself thread.

Bonus cool points for:

Exact day.

Date when the revolution overthrows the broken system and implements socialism.

Date when we achieve full communism.

My turn:
Capitalism will collapse in 2037. The effects of neoliberal economics will prove irreversible within our current structure at this time, and the environment will be degraded to the point where we see it impacting our daily lives.

I base this off of mere guessing.

June 9th 2069
and
September 6th 2069 if you're a europoor

2069 on Hitlers birthday

I think it will be around then too

Eventually the gap between capitalists, skilled labor, and unskilled labor in the West will grow so large that capitalism will have to collapse in the face of rising anti-inequality sentiment

However, at first the transition will just be universal basic income and make-work programs (the thing about UBI is that even very spooked economists like it too). I think it won't be until 2060 at the earliest that we will see Western countries embrace true socialism. So my estimates:

2020s: first Western government embraces UBI (probably a northern European country: either Scandi, Low country, Germany, or France)

2030s: widespread UBI adoption

2040s: China has a per-capita GDP rivaling some of the richest countries. India is like the modern day China, Africa is like the modern day India except there's a new corparitist scramble for Africa sponsored by the CIA in the same style as the corporatist scramble for Latin America during the cold war. Western countries have to deal with the repurcussions of rising global labor costs, and economic development stalls outside of the poorest countries. Asset bubbles pop everywhere as growth goals are re-evaluated.

2050s: In reaction to the currently tanked Western economies, da revolution and da socialism in Europe

how would one actually claim their points and what value would they have in a communist system?

Stop misusing "spooked." Class is just as much a spook as muh free markeds.

UBI is a good transition to socialism though

Socialism is never coming back

pretty accurate.

You're underestimating the massive propaganda that there will be against UBI though.
My greatest fear is that Musk, Gates or some other pig will take the burden of feeding proles "voluntarily" and kill democracy for good.

Revulution will start unorganized and fueled by popular revolt in the 30s-40s, will probably be crippled by propaganda and fought by old people and die out, Communist parties will rebuild and organize as reform fails once again, all legitimized authority will be permanently discredited and there will be full blown war between Communists and the now completely authoritarian old liberal democracies.
I'll go with 2117 for worldwide Socialism because of a few decades of guerrilla warfare.
2200 for communism because Patent rights will cripple technological development in the following years, TPP and all.
