Which Communism are you talking about? The one where everybody shares everything or the one where there's a dictator making them share nothing?

@freemo @avlcharlie

Maybe, but if communism converges to these two cases with the same result, it seems to be from the same error in thinking.

@amerika

The root error comes from the assumption people will cooperate with the principle willingly. Once you assume most people will exploit any system for personal gain when they can it becomes evident communism is not a workable system without a totalitarian government. Even then people will generally do the bare minimum so you get poverty.

Capitalism exploits the inherent selfishness of individuals for the greater good of society.

The #Flakiverse is bad at retaining information, so anything serious I post somewhere else.

It's just a flaw in the design I suppose.

Maybe not on this host, but generally:

1. The last two hosts I have used both transitioned to new iterations and lost all previous data.
2. The Mastodong(tm) software seems to have problems at a certain point for many, maybe due to its combination of unnecessary complexity and lack of certain basic features.
3. Over the years, a number of hosts have vanished suddenly with loss of all user data.
