I didn’t even know the fediverse was that old.

Preemptively blowing up a fertility clinic as a last resort.
Based if true.

Yes
Militarily driving out the French and Burger imperialists was a prerequisite for their governmental success. After all, if they hadn’t done that, they wouldn’t be governing themselves in the first place.
My only complaint is that the Baltics aren’t included in the Shut The Fuck Up Zone.

Most people rejected OP’s message. They hated him because he told the truth.
An important aspect of your argument is that land is not capital. I suspect that differing definitions of capital between you and Cowbee is leading to you both largely talking past each other. I wouldn’t be surprised if the Georgist conception of capital has some fundamental differences with the Marxist one.
This is painfully true. I posted a story not too long ago about some architecture from hell I had to deal with at my day job. At first I hated the dev on the other team who came up with the idea; then I learned that the dev had only made it as a proof of concept to use for his team’s specific use case during some time the company sets aside for innovation. Someone in management saw a presentation he did on it and liked the idea so much he decreed that it needs to be used as the single source of truth for a core part of our application. Any new frontend project that isn’t in our monolith now must use this shitty tool.
When you outline your ideal society, having antitrust laws, strong regulations, etc, you leave out analysis of political power.
They seem to have some inkling of that based on their last paragraph (emphasis mine):
So yes, there is an in-between. And it depends exactly how much business is left to the government and how much is left to companies. This balance is defined by politics.
[Y]ou haven’t actually engaged with Communists and their ideas, legitimately, and likely would agree with us.
Hopefully true based on what I just highlighted.
I’ve been using EndeavourOS for awhile now and it’s really good. Everything more or less just works.
Mr. Stalin agrees with Mr. Lenin. He just butted in to let everyone know the pizza they ordered earlier has arrived.
And then you will wonder why young men are misogynistic I guess. The answer is that you’re a fucking antagonising moron.
Better watch out. I just watched CNN and they said he’s going after the local TGI Fridays next.
