I'm a little confused by your comment, because I also admire the Kibutz method, however it's widely regarded as communistic (some interchangeably call it "socialist") so I'm not clear at the implied contrast to the other communism system where you need to bribe officials for a good funeral. Can you help me understand better what you mean?
- myth_drannon 2y agoI don't see Kibutz as socialist or communist even if some ideas are similar. As I wrote the scale is very different. Kibutz is communal, like a large family. You can't have transactional relationships with family members. Also, you are not forced to be a part of it, you can leave any time. So if I compare it to a communist farm like Kolhoz where the former serfs still were enslaved by the government. So there is a certain difference in the personality of someone who lived and worked in Kolhoz (alienation) and Kibutz (open and not competitive/selfish). I'm saying this as someone who had family members in Kolhoz and knew a lot of Kibutz-born people and also worked in Kibutz(which was privatized). Of course, I'm also generalizing a lot.
