I have a question.

    I mean complex in terms of specialization of production. Like technology. Most people don’t know how their food gets to their table, or how to repair a combustion engine. I’m interested in how that would be maintained in a communist environment. I know the Soviets became industrialized and technologically advanced, but that was with the help of the state. With no state under stateless communism, would technological advances slow or be sporadic? It just seems that the current system of complexity might suffer in a transition. This is all academic and probably irrelevant due to climate crisis, but it’s interesting for me to contemplate.

      Full easy to follow instructions to produce or repair all products and automated manufacturing facilities with automated delivery are theoretically possible. One can also have community repair centers to easily distribute repair tools to an as needed basis.
