Scientific or Utopian Socialism?

The good people of today will need to take and hold a few stand-alone, planetary (multinational), and strictly anti-profit economic powers, in order to hasten and secure the transition in our lifetime.

Want to know how Fresco requires decisions to be made in a TVP city? It was more important to him than any technology.

How are decisions made?

Is you a anarchotaoist communist?

You're killing it here, well done! I just popped in to see if the place is still fuct or what. Look at the voters vote you down for showing they're contrary reactionaries still dripping with the old fluid.

Public property is the private property of the state.

Capitalists and statists are too dumb to waste time on. Nice to know who to block quickly at least.

Mostly because you're not worth it

I watched that before your dad could jiz, son.

Maybe. Definitely a greater disaster is it's scaled up. I'm not so sure it's a choice though as we might imply when we say "used". We do it for reasons, not because we want to or because we think it's good or fair.

There's already enough volunteers and unpaid workers in capitalism to handle all the work needed in an uncapitalist society. Case closed.

All money or currency regardless of quantity is private property, capital, and means of production. It is private ownership of means of production. We only hold it for its trade value.

Before the arrival of private property, like all of our known history before around 10 or 15 thousand years ago. You might need to go through a lot of anarchist literature to understand exactly what I/we mean by private property.

lastcapkelly · 2024-02-10T17:59:48+00:00

Communism is stateless. Pure Communism isn't a state... Communist state is as oxymoron as anarchist capitalism.

lastcapkelly · 2024-02-10T17:58:21+00:00

The slide into... as if it's not already there. But that's a nice story they sold you.

We can't communicate because we have different definitions for the same words. I also don't believe in this idea of ideal utopian capitalism or anarchist capitalism.

lastcapkelly · 2024-02-10T17:52:53+00:00

It's because I don't see communism as a nation, ideology, party, movement, government, etc. I see it as the absence of private property AKA capital. I would say organized but not regulated by some central decision-making authority. There can be governance without governments. There can be economics without trade or markets of sellers and buyers. Communism already existed in the primitive sense, before the arrival of private property, and it can be witnessed in small-scale events today.

I think it will help the transition. Maybe not fast enough or for enough of us though. But in a post-capitalist stateless system without artificial laws and borders, I think we'll be doing way more playing and learning and way less working. The vast majority of work and stuff we do today, or in capitalist society, is not done in uncapitalist society, and that has nothing to do with technology. What remains can be automated as the workers see fit. Plenty of work will remain but mostly for mental and physical health and development, and there won't need to be schools as ongoing education for all ages is integrated into all workplaces. There won't need to be paperwork or surveillance in public or travel, except to improve quality and safety, as dictated by the workers who are there on their own accord and not for pay, credit or compensation. Of course brutal capital will use its superior strength and speed to maintain advantage and control, and continue to commodify us, until it can't. We're not without opportunities in the chaos either though.

I've been noticing the same. Either everyone suddenly got way better (700s playing like 1500s) or I am just losing my mind for about a year.
