    I'm actually just super jealous of Elon Musk and if we guillotined him I would take some of his cash or land and never think about communism again.

    I also don't like "receive full value" framing. I haven't done anything of value in my whole fucking life so I don't want me getting the shit I want to be contingent on that.

      There is this word: Ubuntu.
      It means roughly, I am cause we are.

      You are part of the historic community, you do reproduce society, you are part of it and there is more labour that is done by you, besides producing sheets of linen in a factory. Though I agree with you in the regard that I don't like the framing as "receive full value" and everything is good, myself either. It often lets the things look so cold and analytical, while the people who were involved in the communist movements - even back in 1840s and before - were quite specifically driven to improve the conditions of the people. Cause they found this injustice not objectively to be changed, but also within their own subjective conscious.

      What I am trying to say: You are part of the social net between us all, spanning into the past and the future and I am happy about it :)
