“You might mean working according to someone else’s plan.”

Yes, this is what I meant by “working for”.

“If you abolish ownership, then working “for” someone changes in meaning.”

This is correct, if you stretch the meaning of “working for”, it can mean anything in the world. However, when we take the context of a workplace (for example a factory that makes glasses), in a capitalist system where you need to sell your labor in order to have a barely adequate life, you do not work for anything else other than your capitalist boss.

You do not work for the people who need glasses.

You do not work for the glory of the working class.

You work for your capitalist boss. This is pretty easy to understand when you actually manage to develop some class consciousness (you’ll get there).

It does not matter if your boss is “kind, considerate and willing to work with you”, you still work for him.

I’d be much more in favor of working in a factory if that boss was non-existant, and it instead felt like a union or group instead of a factory where I’m told to shut my trap or risk being homeless, or forced to move somewhere else to find work.

Edit: Looks like I made the Libs mad with this one B)

But wouldn’t you rather want to work with that person instead of for that person?

I mean when you put it like that it makes a lot more sense, but even that requires a sort of technology to accurately build a brain that works the same way a human brain does. Maybe AGI can be built but we have none of the resources to synthesize a human brain?

How do we even know if AGI is achievable? I don’t know anything about this topic but as far as I’ve heard AGI might actually just be impossible.

Oh for me it’s been like this since I first signed up.

But if you really think theres too few posts maybe thats a good call for you to start posting? :)

Hardly bothers me. I’ll be scrolling for maybe 2 minutes and reach yesterdays posts, get caught up. It’s nice to be on social media where you aren’t constantly scrolling.

In the 21st century, there is no sovereignty without technological sovereignty. Swiss money is better spent developing our own technology and services industry than supporting the economy of unreliable trading partners.

Absolutely agree, let’s hope the Swiss can also walk the walk.

My face when there is more than one evil person in power in the world: :O

Technology is to be shared, fuck IP. Let the Chinese have it.

And then they call Trotsky the traitor… when Lenin himself was already sounding the alarm on the rot from within. It’s hilariously ironic how the system they built devoured its own, yet the critiques came too late to stop the damage.

The state is counter-revolutionary. Always.

Even Lenin was critical of the USSR before he died. He wrote about it in his book “Better Fewer, But Better”.

“Our state apparatus is so deplorable, not to say wretched…

“We must reduce our state apparatus to the utmost degree of economy. We must banish from it all traces of extravagance, of which so much has been left over from tsarist Russia, form its bureaucratic capitalist state machine.”

Anonymous, do your thing. Please come back.

Humans also invented slavery, torture devices, nuclear weapons, and totalitarian regimes but we don’t argue these things are “natural” or inevitable.

Just because humans created capitalism doesn’t mean it’s an expression of some essential or universal human trait.
