On the one hand a better income and better controlled living expenses, on the other hand culture war.
I don't know you guys, I'd really like to see the energy and medical sector nationalized, along with a possibility of living accommodations being made a human right, but on the other hand I'm really worried about more black people in Star Wars.
In a socialist world, there is no Mac Luenkey
Liberals promise civility while crushing the poor, fascists promise incivility while crushing the poor, Marxists promise eliminating the material conditions which make people poor, liberal, or fascist. Tough choice.
It would also just be neat to live in the presence of justice. If I look up and there's no imperial war, I'd feel a little dopamine. If working in a kitchen wasn't awful and there was no ghoul of a manager hovering over the place "disciplining" the people that worked there, then maybe fast food wouldn't be such a meme. Maybe people could care about feeding the community. Maybe casual conversation with a customer wouldn't be such a nightmarish experience. These things would be nice and antithetical to what either party is suggesting.
My dream scenario socialism involves local cafeterias where people who like cooking can feed the community while those who don't can just eat and not have to worry about preparing shit 2-3 times a day every day.
This was a reality for decades in the Eastern Bloc, and still is in Chinese communes.
This is my dream, too. If I woke up and suddenly didn't need to worry about money ever again, my family and I would probably spend the rest of our lives gardening and making community soup like Big Kinook.
