Are you actually arguing exploitation is necessary? That any system treating all people fairly will result in everybody starving?

Feel free to let others exploit you, I will keep trying for the fair system

Do you know of example of a thriving human society not based on exploitation?

Do you think humans can never try something new?

[-] Xeroxchasechase@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Sure they can, but it's an imaginary future right now...

[-] omarfw@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

This is not the best we can do and anyone who believes it is must have a very defeatist and cynical attitude towards humanity.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Yes, trying something new does require imagining a future where that new thing is going on. Your point?

[-] Xeroxchasechase@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

There's no example of a thriving system not based on exploitation. You might imagine one, people imagine it for thousands of years, but it's. ... imaginary

You seem unable to understand the concept of 'new.'

I'm sure you understand the definition. I'm not sure you understand the concept based on your previous posts.

Yeah I do believe that a world wide social democracy with pockets of very small scale democratically run distributed communism. But that's as simplicit as thinking that 100% pure free market will take care of everything. And anyway you'll need some way to enforce it
