You forgot pride flags, blahaj, astronomy, and psychedelics. I would also say far-left politics, but there’s plenty of right-wing autists out there too.

He did a Jan 6th.

That’s a good explanation of generational poverty and why it’s so expensive to be poor, but if Vimes is looking for the real reason the rich are so rich, he should read about surplus labor value. He seems to have ignored the broader class dynamics at play under capitalism.

Or maybe things are different on Discworld, I haven’t actually read the books.

Fair enough, but in a more just system, class would not exist, at all.

FTFY :P

I recommend you check out the YouTube channel PBS Space Time. They have some excellent videos explaining the holographic principle and all the background knowledge needed to understand it.

Do you say that you’re “boring as a person” because you don’t have any interests or hobbies, or because your interests and hobbies are so niche that you doubt anyone else would find them interesting, so you never end up talking about them?

Communism without a dictatorship is yet to be seen at large scale. That would be interesting to compare.

It has actually been seen, and currently exists today. See the autonomous region of Rojava in Syria and the Zapatista territories in Mexico. Both were founded on anarchist principles.

Additionally, by definition, communism cannot exist under a dictatorship. That’s why all of the “communist” dictatorships actually say they are socialist, and claim to be working towards a communist future, which is obviously bullshit. All nations founded on Marxist-Leninist principles inevitably become one-party dictatorships because they don’t go all in on communism. You must immediately abolish the state for communism to ever work.
