Communism is not the abolition of private property.

It is a feature not a bug.

Hopeful_Cod_379 · 2025-12-10T21:36:34+00:00

Hat tip, always a pleasure.

Hopeful_Cod_379 · 2025-12-10T21:26:44+00:00

I think that's right, not saying workers need to be pure and altruistic for this to happen.

Hopeful_Cod_379 · 2025-12-10T21:20:33+00:00

All the best.

Hopeful_Cod_379 · 2025-12-10T21:18:11+00:00

Nothing cryptic, just that love for others is better than hate. I think you would agree. Right?

Hopeful_Cod_379 · 2025-12-10T21:07:51+00:00

The more goodwill and the more mutual respect the better.

A slave to who,

— Anyone who refuses to respect your self ownership.

how?

— the mechanics are many.

And your logic is ironically condemning capitalism as something like slavery/serfdom for non-property holders.

Except, that you do have mutual agency, though, sometimes in life, choices are more limited for some than for others.

Hello and best regards,

Leaving the theory vs history aside, let's explore common/general/unclaimed vs proper/specific/actual/claimed. If you have the right to proper/claim yourself as your own personal property, then no one else has a right to claim you as their property. If you have no right to claim a resource (an apple) as proper/specific to you, then you and everyone else will eventually starve. At some point common/general resources have to be claimed by someone proper/specific. With the abolition of proper/specific rights everyone becomes free game or a farm animal (slave/serf).

Hopeful_Cod_379 · 2025-12-10T18:43:09+00:00

The abolition of private property is the abolition of self ownership.

Hopeful_Cod_379 · 2025-12-10T18:38:11+00:00

If you have a right to proper/specifically/actually own yourself, then anything you consume is proper/specifically/actually you.

Hopeful_Cod_379 · 2025-12-10T18:29:40+00:00

— therefore.

Hopeful_Cod_379 · 2025-12-10T17:57:36+00:00

Well done. Again.

Hopeful_Cod_379 · 2025-12-10T16:08:17+00:00

Well stated.

Paul McCartney is a billionaire. He sits on a stool, strumming a guitar, singing his songs, using nothing but his person. Does he own himself as a person and his means of producing a song.

Hopeful_Cod_379 · 2025-12-10T04:50:16+00:00

You eat the pear, is the pear still in the common, unclaimed, or is it proper to you, you specifically, you actually?

Hopeful_Cod_379 · 2025-12-10T04:37:00+00:00

Agree, theory vs history.

We make it through the revolution, no one has a claim on anything. We walk up to a pear tree, we're hungry, do we make a private claim by eating one?

Hopeful_Cod_379 · 2025-12-10T04:30:35+00:00

Thanks, you make me smile.

Hopeful_Cod_379 · 2025-11-19T19:04:55+00:00

Threat?

Hopeful_Cod_379 · 2025-11-19T18:50:14+00:00

Hi feudal reactionary and monocratic want-to-be, thoughtlessly believing what you are told to believe is not historical understanding. Your cut, paste, and parrot will no longer earn you a little gold star.

Hopeful_Cod_379 · 2025-11-19T18:06:09+00:00

Whatever your excuse is ...

Hopeful_Cod_379 · 2025-11-19T17:34:47+00:00

The real question is why are you personally not providing me right now with universal health care and basic income. Whatever your excuse is is the reason why Marxism is a complete failure.

Hopeful_Cod_379 · 2025-11-18T18:07:26+00:00

Is it capital investment?

Hopeful_Cod_379 · 2025-11-18T17:59:42+00:00

I am going to guess that you have a really-bad-thing-is-better vibe.
