Yeah, but there is the authoritarian state owned housing way and the anarchist housing cooperative way. Political science isn’t linear.

It’s not linear. Anarchist or Libertarian Socialist systems like Syndicalism, Mutualism, Georgism, and Distributism are just as Socialist as Marxism in that they prevent the exploitation of capital accumulation, but they favor direct stakeholder ownership of firms in place of a state or other more communal systems that create an inherent hierarchy of power.
There’s also a middle ground between consumer cooperatives which are more on the communal side and worker cooperatives that are more on the libertarian socialist side with Worker Consumer Cooperatives that align both kinds of stakeholders with ownership and management reducing exploitation on both ends.
As a Mutualist, while there are a few things that could be better centralized, I’m in favor of a full worker consumer cooperative economy. Housing, groceries, and, utilities all work better as cooperatives, but capitalist have enough wealth to often push cooperatives out in other markets.
The problem with the word woke is that it was specifically about racial inequality and then the right made it synonymous with everything they hate about lgbtq people. White Christian Nationalism is the real mind virus.
I just a Mutualist who wants worker consumer cooperatives and housing cooperatives to be the only way to form businesses. Unless someone has a direct stake in the firm, they shouldn’t be able to benefit from it. No rent seeking, no venture capital, no bureaucracy.
I know people that work at an electric consumer cooperatives that are the same way. Nothing says capitalism more than communal ownership I guess. :/
It does. Just very poorly.
Screw nano and ed, use mirco.
Wouldn’t that be Anarchism/ Libertarian Socialism? Communism requires a state which is an implicit hierarchy.
I use gnome with dash-to-panel. I can’t do docks or top bars.
This is why I support worker ownership and cooperatives rather than corporate ownership. I think we need to shift towards a Mutualist economy rather than a Capitalist one.
Honestly, I think the only interesting micro kernel right now is Redox OS.
Logic only proves something based on the starting axioms. People more often than not think based on a logical framework, but often with axioms and heuristics that differ from our own usually based on who and what they trust, what benefit they’d like and how much for they need to use to get it, and who they see as their ingroup and outgroup. People often think in terms of these kinds of relationships to maximize internal goals and benefits and minimize loss and repulsion.
As much as I would love if everyone could be on the same page and do their own thing, people’s desires naturally conflict especially when there is scarcity or someone feels backed into a corner.
This is why I advocate for worker and consumer cooperatives.
That previous experience, efficiency, and effectiveness in carrying out the labor is the skill.
The depends on the material and the recycler. Metals, glass, organic waste, paper, and car battery recycling is pretty good. South Korea, and several European nations have really efficient recycling programs. Even some plastics like PET are easy to recycle. The issue is that a lot of plastics make it very difficult to recycle especially if they are embedded into another material or are specialized for their usecase and most places have trash recycling programs pun intended.
Both are easily countable on fingers using your thumb and counting up the segments for base 12 and adding the pads for base sixteen. You can reasonably count to 144(gross) or 256 using both hands to create a two digit dozenal or hexadecimal number.
You just described a housing cooperative. This form of collective ownership aligns owner and renter/home owner stakeholders as the same person and is a special form of consumer cooperative. Housing cooperatives are especially prevalent in the nordic countries. They keep prices down as they aren’t owned by shareholders who want continuous profit. The problem with this style of firm is that they tend to dissolve after the tenets collectively pay off the property and seek to sell rather than maintain or expand the cöop. This occured after world war 2 in France as a bunch of post war building were quickly built and the coops that built them were dissolved.
