wage gap non existent

ok so basically the idea is that it's through the unrestricted free market that we can obtain what could be referred to as a "socialist" utopia

like there's no restrictions - no copyrights or any state to hold up corporations

we're fine as a capitalist country

mutualism is anarchy imagined as a series of relationships where no party has power over another

so you could argue that it's not entirely socialist or communist but oh well

anarchy is ridiculous

*but oh well*

a world with no government

it is ridiculous

there has never been a successful anarchist state

oh those

are ancoms

lmao based

"The natural effect of unfettered market competition is socialism. For a short time the innovator receives a large profit, as a reward for being first to the market. Then, as competitors adopt the innovation, competition drives these profits down to zero and the price gravitates toward the new, lower cost of production made possible by this innovation (that price including, of course, the cost of the producer’s maintenance and the amortization of her capital outlays). So in a free market, the cost savings in labor required to produce any given commodity would quickly be socialized in the form of reduced labor cost to purchase it.

Only when the state enforces artificial scarcities, artificial property rights, and barriers to competition, is it possible for a capitalist to appropriate some part of the cost savings as a permanent rent. The capitalist, under these conditions, is enabled to engage in monopoly pricing. That is, rather than being forced by competition to price her goods at the actual cost of production (including her own livelihood), she can target the price to the consumer’s ability to pay."

That's basically it

nice copypasta

k

Oh

I did put it in quotation marks 😳

Indeed

anyways i only have the communist role because mutualism believes that through the use of an entirely free and unrestricted market without a state we can achieve socialism

you know what's funny

GG @Darman, you just advanced to level 8!

it's not communist through practice, but rather as an end

you could say

Bernie Sanders dogs on rich people but owns more than one house

communism would never work properly

yup because it has totalaritarian leadership

at least in the past too

its not even cause of that too

see I have to agree with you to some degree

millions of people even died of communism

eehh

fuck

we all know what communists want

it could be argued that communism has to enforce its rules through an authoritarian government

im not in the mood to argue or debate

even anarcho communism has to be achieved through some authoritarian means
