    Well I don’t think the federation government would be idiotic enough to try and make every farmer into an industrialist by forcing them to meltdown their own tools in the hopes of creating mechanised farming equipment only to end up with piles of unusable pig-iron slag, and thus contributing to another famine.

        Says the Stalinist who’d be the first lined up at the wall and shot by the very ideology they support.

        And for the record, fuck the Nazis, fuck the Tories, and fuck every single fascist rightwing or leftwing.

        Democracy isn’t perfect, but it gives people a voice and if they work hard to maintain proper democratic institutions, it offers the better outcomes for the majority.

          Yea, democracy is nice. That’s why China has workers councils embedded into its constitution, to ensure democracy in the workplace.

            A world where China respected its constitie would have really been something.
