  • “I mean, we want it to be as bloodless as possible, but you have to understand that there will be resistance in the land and business owner classes that have to be quashed. As long as you willingly give up your ownership…no you won’t be compensated for it…as long as you…hic…as long as you willingly give up ownership, then you won’t have to be forced to do it. But hey…you can’t make an omelette without breaking a few eggs.”


  • …and how do you enforce it? No one is going to want to give up the land that they worked for and purchased themselves, or that they developed. Give up your rights or we imprison or kill you?

    And who controls this enforcing agency? The single party government? Because you can’t have multiple parties…how do you prevent the government from taking advantage of their position? Like, I don’t think communism is this magical fix-all that you think it is.


  • Communism inevitably will always lead to dictatorship and totalitarianism.

    In order to become a communist state, you have to: 1.) Get a bit army or group of people to enforce the upcoming rules. 2.) Force people to get rid of private ownership or threaten them to give it up. This will piss a lot of people off. 3.) Get rid of them if they don’t. This will piss a lot of people off. 4.) Realize that you’ve pissed a lot of people off, and that your the only power in the land, you definitely don’t want to give this up. 5.) Enact a single party system…oh, fuck…

    Communism doesn’t work on a large-scale, and it’s not sustainable. By it’s very nature it’s extremely prone to abuse, and fundamentally impossible to install any sort of checks and balances on a single party-system. Look how bad it is with a two-party system in the US.

    I highly highly highly recommend making gummies instead. I purchased gummy molds so I know EXACTLY how much I’m dosing. They take like 10 minutes to make (but a couple days to dry). You can’t burn them, and if you fuck anything up, you can just remelt and pour again.

    You can you make a half cup of oil last like 2months. Do it with the right weed, you have a clean, consistent, amazing high.

    100%. Except I’ve moved completely on to edibles. My supply last 20x longer and my lungs don’t feel like an ash tray.

    Learning how to make your own edibles was the best move I’ve made in a long time. Just pop a couple after dinner, and it hits guaranteeably after the kids go to bed, and I get to enjoy the rest of the evening just relaxing.

    Edit: Gummies. I make gummies.

    It’s why education is so important. It’s also why the rich (a.k.a. the Republican Party) want to gut education. An uneducated population is so much easier to manipulate - why rein in the Supreme Court, the 1%, or the government when minorities are the cause for all of your problems? It’s the same tactic that’s been used and nauseum for literally millennia. It’s tried and true, and only education will stop it. Hell, global education is the reason we are even in such a golden age right now…
