if you’re using it as a vacation rental and doing all the cleaning and maintenance yourself. If you hire someone else to do the work for you then it becomes private property

Do you guys even listen to yourself? This makes zero sense.

The recent strong example of a communist revolution gave us the anti-communist revolution. It took us 30 fucking years though. And the cost of this little detour can still be felt today. We’re at least 2 generations of progress behind, compared to our western peers.

Yes, they are. Because by destroying the market, you also destroy the toothbrush making machines, and kill the toothbrush makers. Have fun eating the rich, but don’t complain when they end up stuck between your theeth.

Superman himself is invulnerable, the rest of the world isn’t

Go watch The Boys!

You are right my brother in arms, let’s overthrow the cooks! Enough with their bullshit already! Free burgers for everyone! Burgers to the people! People’s burgers!

When thoughts like this trouble me, I simply realize how awesome it is that you can simply summon a burger using the magic box in your pocket. What a great time to be alive!

If my grandma wanted a burger at my age, she would have to wake up early in the morning to catch a good spot in queue in front of the butcher shop.

I thought I was going to see how to repair the pressure washer. There’s no better feeling than taking something broken or incomplete and making it right. Watching someone else do it is the close second.

But the guy just said “I did it” “And you can too!”. The internet equivalent of patting each others back. Meanwhile I still have no idea what was really wrong with it, and how it was fixed. Nothing of value was transmitted, except maybe a vague form of a feeling.

I hate this so much.

It has been [ 0 ] days since somebody abused the word “contract” in this context. Please, leave the contract alone!

They are.

Lysenko wouldn’t be a problem in first place, if he bet his own capital on his hypothesis.

And yet, people are still coming there voluntarily. But that word is missing from the communist dictionary.

The will of a worker is nothing under the communism. It’s always about some abstract mythical collective.

But that degrades a person to a child. A child can own a trinket or two, but for anything of real value, there’s mommy and daddy.

Which fits perfectly well with my hypothesis, that the majority of people actually don’t want a government. They want a babysitter to watch over them.

It’s ok comrade. Uninformed peoole often says so, but the braindrain in communism has been accouted for. A bit of a barbed wire, some dogs, a few guys with daddy issues and a gun will stop any brains crossing the border. /s

This is exactly what I was looking for!

I even went throughout the same thought process as well, trying to stay within the expensive, but fool-proof consumer electronics segment. The only thing that stopped me so far was that the powerbanks with passthrough charging and good capacity are either out of stock, or prohibitively expensive.

I’ll go this way, despite the regulator being rather large in size for the purpose.

I thought owning the means of production was the point, but requiring a consistent argument from a communist is like requiring a consistent argument from a communist.
