Anyways, I'm off to sleep for the night
I've been thinking about communism, and how communists say real communism hasn't ever been tried
Because all previous communist regimes were under an authoritarian state
But what I'm confused about, is how exactly can communism be achieved without a authoritarian state in the first place
You still have to seize the means of production from those who have to
Take back private property
They assume people will willing give it up
And not everyone is going to give it up
Lol ditto
They project
Ah yes I have thought about this too
They think they wont be the ones doing it
Theres a self described socalist in another server who has provided some insight
They think the "RIch" will be the ones getting it taken away
Both helpful and distrubing
revan later
Look how they think increasing taxes on companies would punish the CEOs when it punishes the workers who lose their jobs
Maybe it isn't true that real communism has never been tried
Maybe it's just that communism can only exists in the forms of Maoism and stalinism
no it been tried
I mean, they use europe as "true communism"
In example, they ideal way to bring about socialism would be through democratizing the workplaces.
In his mind, the end goal is social ownership of workplaces and thats it.
Like look, this is what a bit does, imagine the good when its full commie
Blockchains could solve a lot of govt corruption and stuff
main reason being you cant change the record unless u undo time
the good ones at least
Democratizing the workplaces, huh
No more bosses?
Correct
I can't imagine that going very well
already happened via steem cuz we have voting
Because the most effective person isnt the person people would like
Workers have a stake in the compnay and they form comitees to make decisions.
no 3rd party either you can earn
Like someone who will work you to the bone
Most of the workers in any company aren't educated about what helps the company
You want the guy whos easy on everyone
Give alot of benefits
Like dems and the US
