152 is the sum of the + and -1 votes
82 % were +
So 18% were -
So 18% of + were canceled from the -
So what we see is the remaining 64% positive, which means that 100 % are 237 votes (42 downvotes, 195 upvotes)
Shit, we have examples or socialized markets that run whole economies. We don’t need to go far… Shit enforcing the current rules equally would change the world…
That’s an interesting take, wanna tell me more? (I’m sick right now and my brain cells don’t function well enough to think for myself but that’s unironically an interesting take)
well I meant that most business tools have a free/affordable tier or competitor, there’s little structure holding back a profit-sharing model in terms of infrastructure
Because communism requires everyone to be willing to work for the betterment of society, not money. But unless everyone (or at least almost everyone) does that, it doesn’t work.
Second wish is for a version of communism that actually works on a large scale.
Just have to love that you get downvoted for something so basic. “Nah, the current and past versions were fine!” Like what the fuck?
It’s probably the same people who downvoted the meme. Effectively people who don’t want ANY version of communism

Seems like the opposite is the case with a blatantly false statement getting massive upvotes from the radlibs of lemmy.
The post has 23 upvotes. What are you on about?
It had 0 when I commented.
I can not see the number of up/down votes, sadly, they copied that flaw from Reddit.
I can’t see the number of downvotes at a glance, but i can see that it has 152 upvotes and that 82% of people upvoted the post.
I’m far too lazy now, but this should be enough to do the math and get the number of downvotes or do you mean something else?

Welcome to Lemmy.

I think we have enough tech today to make it better
Yah, the pervasive surveillance should help immensely and totally not be used against the people.
wait until you find out what this tech is used for under capitalism

that the means of production are very easily owned by the working class and petit bourgeoisie? throw a dart at a list of SaaS products.
Pick one.

If you’re wishing anyway, you might as well go to the root of the problem and change human nature.
What does “Human Nature” have to do with organizational structures?
Humans are too tribal for communism to work on a large scale. Making them see all humanity as their tribe would be a good start.
…why? What on Earth are you talking about? Is this mysticism or something?

Does it?
Depending on what definition of communism you choose to use.
Where did you get yours?
Why do people in the west have the need to keep pretending that communism doesn’t work at scale when there’s plenty of evidence that it does?
Because, it helps them justify living under an economic system which harms them and the world
yeah, it’s basically capitalist realism
