As always in capitalism, video games have largely deformed from an art form into just another means to generate profit for large corporations

    It’s how the state decides to fund things that’s the problem though. As has been proven over and over again in multiple countries.

    It’s great theory, but it’s just theory.

      What exactly is the relevance? To me it seems like you’re just shifting the goal posts.

          So it’s not relevant and you’ve shifted the goal posts? Got it.

            Nope. You said

            Under socialism however, the state funds labor based on needs and/or desires for the output of that labor

            How it chooses to fund labour is less efficient than decisions made where the decision needs to be made. Centralising power doesn’t work. Not in China, not with the EU, not in Russia, not in America

            We need new theory, not 19th century failed ones. We’re connect at the speed of light, representative forms of government are now unnecessary.

            We need local governance, my favourite is sortition and some form of global digital decision making
