      2 months is long enough that there could’ve been many current subscribers that were not yet subscribed then.

    Hmm, in Ayn Rand’s fantasy worlds, the engineers would be the ones who own the machines and thus reap the benefits. So I think the proper criticism there would be that that’s not how it works in the real world, and thus is not a good basis for one’s philosophy.

      I wonder if there’s a term in political science for an ideology where the people who create and operate the means of production should also own and enjoy the benefits from it.

          What if they were to start by accumulating the heads of the traditional gold hoarders in a basket, and their respective bodies in a pile near it?

      If only people would stop pretending those fantasy words had any resemblance to reality.

      Honestly, society would be much better if marxists, anarchists, and etc just converted into delusional Star Wars fans or something like that.

          Yes, Marx was the one that discovered that people sharing ideas is important for society!

          Also, can I interest you on Andor? It’s a really good TV show.
