If it was done as a worker's co-op it should be possible to use the idea to avoid the worst apsects of capitalist immmiseration through group cost savings. Living with a group of politically like minded people seems attractive. Allowing comrades you live with to hold you accountable for your organizing, lifestyle and productivity would probably be a positive thing for everyone here tbh. Am guilty. A lot more theory would be read in general lol.

I mean, it's probably better suited to single people that would be willing to relocate, but it seems surprising that it's not a bigger thing, especially with the cost of accomodation.

Got this fantasy of a derelict office block at the end of a cycle path, say 40mins cycle from a city to get the cheaper real estate, converted for communal living.
