    Fantasy communism: Life of leisure for everyone!

    Actual communism: If you don’t work, you are a bourgeois breaker and saboteur here to destroy communism! To the hard labour camp with you, bourgeois pigdog!

    I also like the Culture novels and Star Trek, but I find the FALC meme an unhelpful way of framing things as that’s not a path from here to there
