Idealist. It would be easier and more viable to just have the means of production be owned and democratically managed by the proletariat than to share power in the long term with our exploiter without one side or the other losing.

Bullshit. We already know that mixed economies can work well and we already know that centrally planned economies lead to dictatorship due to the incentive alignment problem. We also know that centrally planned economies are incredibly inefficient at distributing goods and services. Communism is just a terrible idea and no amount of magical thinking and idealism can make it a good idea. The only way it works is on a very small scale where everyone personally knows everyone else, and that's not in any way practical in a world of 8 billion people.

Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
