Why isn't everyone on the same page?
There is no market socialism, there is no mixed economy. We're heading towards full socialism where the choices will just be who owns what if we have a choice at all.
If the robots and ai do all the labor then wage labor is done. If wage labor is done people can not buy. If they can not buy they need to receive money from the state. See the chain of logic?
>What is to be done?
Maybe everyone should just be entitled to a portion of all companies. Like a stock exchange stock and everything can carry on as is. Idk.

Iranian press review: New hijab law faces revived opposition
Last Friday, after more than a year of deliberations in Iran's parliament and in the powerful Guardian Council, conservative lawmaker Amir Hossein Bankipour stated that the authorities would automatically deduct 30m Iranian rials (around $713) from the bank accounts of those who fail to comply with the obligatory Islamic hijab law.

Egypt accused of 'questionable' amnesty deals with ISIS-linked suspects in Sinai
According to the two groups, such pardon agreements were made without publicly specifying criteria for releasing suspects from custody. "Evidence gathered by the two organisations and public statements by officials indicate that the authorities have granted some members of the ISIS affiliate Wilayat Sinai (Sinai Province) amnesties for laying down their arms and turning themselves in," a joint statement said, without specifying an exact number of defendants.

California sheriff releases video showing killing of boy, 15, holding garden tool
The first 15-second video released showed one deputy arriving at the home in Apple Valley, east of Los Angeles, to find an open front door. A man inside could be heard saying, “He’s got a stick in his hand,” and soon after, Ryan appeared holding the gardening tool, identified as a 5ft hula hoe. The deputy at the door shouted: “Get back … you’re going to get shot.”

Inside the UAW’s Southern Strategy
The UAW has pledged to spend US$40 million through 2026 to expand its ranks to include more auto and electric battery workers, including many employed in the South, where the industry is quickly gaining ground. Based on my five decades of experience as a union organizer and labor historian, I anticipate that, recent momentum aside, the UAW will face stiff resistance from Toyota, Volkswagen, Mercedes-Benz and the other big foreign automakers that operate in the South. The pushback is also coming from Southern politicians, many of whom have expressed concern that UAW success would undermine the region’s carefully crafted approach to economic development.

War on Gaza: All signs point to a strategic defeat for Israel
For 75 years, the western world was indifferent. But this war is forcing Israel’s western backers to see the full horrors of the crimes being committed in a campaign they described five months ago as just. Even a progressive critic of Israel like US Senator Bernie Sanders said five months ago that the war against Hamas was just. The degree of brutality and glee shown by Israeli soldiers as they go on their daily killing sprees; starving Gaza, and then dropping leaflets in Arabic telling Palestinians to feed the needy; killing 400 people waiting for aid, and then vowing to flood Gaza with aid; all of this is too much to sweep under the carpet when this war stops. A rubicon has been crossed. With this war, Israel has entered the elite rank of pariah states. It is now the ugliest of the ugly. It’s impossible to forgive. It cannot be justified, nor can it be put into context. Liberal Zionism has become a contradiction in terms. It’s too much of a stretch. Acting like this, Israel has become not the home of a beleaguered people persecuted around the world for millennia, but the Fort Knox of Jewish supremacism, the natural heir to white supremacists. This is having a transformational effect on Jewish people worldwide, in whose name and common past these crimes are being committed.

These guys are fun to watch. Their entire strategy is to appear more noble and civilized in front of the audience as part of the spectacle - picking on liberal kids who have little to no grasp of what socialism is or are part of revisionist organizations cucked by identity politics.
This allows them to disregard any intellectual challenges to instead appear superior by simply smothering the small fish with generic questions they're unable to give a straight answer to and ending it with this is what leftists are - a bunch of hoodlums who yell and wear brand clothing while we have banners, heraldry, uniforms and make songs with our bagpipes.

It would be interesting to see a left opposition that's just as organized as them to oppose them - one which doesn't have ugly slobs to stand out for ridicule (pic related).

There was an argument in college about this guy in the context of Dostoyevsky's demons. Nobody knew what he represented but the Jordan Peterson fanboys claimed he represented "the unadulterated fundamentals of communism".

I did some digging and found Marx and Engels making fun of him.

Lenin and Stalin liked him.

I am confused what to think.

Thanks a lot this is gold.

Also this is kind of important: the reason you see a renewed interest in dostoyevsky is because right wing retards like jordy peterstein ran out of solzhenitsyns gibberish and needed something new to feed their masses. Tolstoy wasn't an option because the guy's hatred of the church opened the door to marxist analysis so they had to go to fyodor who's ideology is summed up in this russian saying:
>don't rock the boat
Which is exactly what right wing financiers want.

What the other economists advance against it is either horse-piss, namely that every action after all acts upon something, thus confusion of the product in its natural and in its economic sense; so that the pickpocket becomes a productive worker too, since he indirectly produces books on criminal law (this reasoning at least as correct as calling a judge a productive worker because he protects from theft). Or the modern economists have turned themselves into such sycophants of the bourgeois that they want to demonstrate to the latter that it is productive labour when somebody picks the lice out of his hair, or strokes his tail, because for example the latter activity will make his fat head – blockhead – clearer the next day in the office. https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1857/grundrisse/ch05.htm

You can more or less boil down the existence of bullshit jobs to the separation of capital ownership from capital management. The big porky who owns the business (including the many shareholders) can't be bothered to see to the day to day operations of the business so they need managers. For larger businesses they need a whole bureaucracy. Within that space, the managerial "class" (really a stratum) is able to carve out for themselves a sort of security. Depending on the scenario, it's often beneficial to a manger to have people around doing nonsensical things. It creates an impression that the manager is more necessary if they have a lot of people to manage, for instance. You could say that what's happening with bullshit jobs is a result of internal contradictions of a business, the antagonism between the interests of the managers and the interests of the owners.

The bigger issue than bullshit jobs though is bullshit businesses. There are whole sectors of the economy doing something unnecessary but by some scheme are able to turn a profit (e.g. the FIRE sector).

Porkies are stupid and hire scammers to run businesses for them. Got it

I mean, yeah, the whole marketing science is just self-referential self-glorification black hole, same as economists and managers. What do Americans call it, hustler culture? Hustler class carved out a place for itself. It's kind of easy to see how fascists would see this and decide that if they liberate porkies from hustlers, then real capitalism "will come back"

Its less porky and more the managerial class as a burgeoning economic entity. The PMC is self-reproduced as a sector which itself is outsourced as an independent market, which is why its basically impossible to move up the chain in a business these days. So managers stand against both porky and proles.
And youll also notice that so much populist discourse is about how much people hate their "boss" which is usually just a regional manager, not the company owner(s).

How about making a stock that funds workers coops and get minority ownership on the workers coop?
It'd still be a corporation but obviously it wouldn't be the same. Since workers coops are more resilient eventually most businesses would be coops.
