    I think you got it the wrong way round.

    "Seizing the means of production ", means that every worker is now also an owner and investors into the company he works at. If you like owning and investing, that should sound cool to you.

    Democracy should be everywhere in our lives, not only once every 4 years, that’s why democracy at the workplace is important.

    The workers wouldn’t get “free stuff from the state” they would get to decide what to do with the surplus value the created with their work. Do we have a bigger payout? Do we invest in more production, more research? All these decisions would be held democratically by the workers AND managers.

    Btw did you know, that you are in a class war wether you want it or not? There is one class waging war on you, one class that has class solidarity, and that is the Epstein class, the billionaire class. They steal the value you create any chance that they get. And what do they do with it? Invest it into hospitals? No. In the best case scenario they hoard it. In the worst case scenario they use it to rape and kill.


















  • I think anyone in India and Africa speaks 4 languages easily.

    1. their regional language (i.e. Masaai, Yoruba, Xhosa)
    2. the over-regional language (Arabic, Swahili)
    3. a coloniser language (English, French)
    4. and possibly just enough of a neighbouring regional language

    I think many Chinese people are also bilingual (i.e. Wu+ always mandarin). They often learn another language in school (English or something geographically closer, like Korean).
