    they have their own fantasy science

      I’m just so impressed by them. Forgoing all forms of capitalism so they are not totally responsible for the outcomes of capitalist society. It’s a principled stance but living in stateless, technology absent, collectives outside the rule of the government is not an easy life.

        i love the fact that their science says that the fact that their system has never worked proves that it will surely work next time

        i think i prefer real science

          I was talking about this with my wife. I’d live in a socialist or communist run government, at least the one they fantasize about, but I would never live long enough to see it enacted, as leftists envision.

          So in my mind I have two choices that aren’t exactly mutually exclusive:

          1.) Openly support communism without thought about what the final outcome of that may actually be because I won’t be alive to guide it (as if I’d have much say).

          2.) Just keep working to make the world I live in better

          Both are fine options and I can do both but they would have me chose the former and exclude the latter.
