Decentralization in true left states results in starvation every single time. Centralization results in oppression. The USSR and the CCP went through each of these phases but almost every smaller example does too. The negative relations between the USSR and the CCP even started out as a disagreement around the USSR not following true decentralization until the starvation started.
I don't know what to tell you other than the fact that it has been tried. It is not a matter of states failing to follow Karl Marx' best guidance around decentralization. It fails that quickly.
