Biology requires competition. That doesn't mean those that don't win in any one moment can't ever win in the future. It doesn't mean that those that don't win in some competition need to live in squalor. The baseline doesn't have to be zero, but without incentive to excel, biology dies. From E. coli to H. sapiens this has been the case for all of the existence of life on this planet. This isn't just a fundamental principle of biology, it is also fundamental in physics and every other area of science.
But to be specific, humans are biological. Humans require incentive to excel; to thrive. Socialism and Communism are designed to disincentivize excellence. That is why they can't work. There is no possible implementation of these ideologies that meets their self described goals because they are fundamentally flawed.
