From the recent Bad Faith podcast. Gonna read up on them. Seems like a decent first step towards full communism, with the added benefit of I don't think people have an immune response to the term.

"Democratize the workforce" is pretty close to "seize the means of production". I'll take it, for now.

    Tbh large company=monopoly is a common misunderstanding. Gigantic companies like Walmart or GE still compete with other gigantic companies with the same intensity as small businesses do. It's why the law of value is still valid today, despite like 1000 companies controlling 80% of all capital.

    I agree that taking state power is essential, like no way the ruling class is gonna let you have your peaceful co-op society even if it's 100% legal within their own framework.
