    Problem is that we can see the results of attempts at revolutionary communism - the failure to adequately flatten wealth inequality leads to the reconsolidation of wealth and political power into oligarchs that twist the political machine to their own interests, killing worker enfranchisement, and killing decommodification or making it a corrupt means of wealth extraction.

    I don’t have any good answers here - the status quo is apocalypticly broken, history shows the revolutionary alternate is almost certainly worse, and the democratic path forward doesn’t seem viable.

    Eating the rich in service of a democratic change may be the most effective solution - I’m open to ideas.
