RE: Why I’m a Socialist and not a Communist
communism is worker control of the means of production. Consensus democracy and/or anarchist forms of communism easily eliminate this problem

"easily eliminate this problem"
Easily eliminate the problem of antisocial individuals aspiring to utterly destroy modern civilization? I don't believe that's the case. I make the argument that democratic/libertarian socialism balances this perennial self-destructive tendency with our egalitarian and progressive drives towards future technological society better than does anarchist communism -- and that this will remain the case until human nature is fundamentally overcome at the point that transcendental neurotechnological trauma & empathy therapies are mass distributable to billions of people... which may never happen in our world's timeline.
nvm, you are right
oh, so you decided to do research on the topic?
