If we're making odd analogies to politics I think most high performing teams tend to end up in the Marxist "From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs". Or instead of the military, think of a basketball team. How do five excellent athletes work together. The coach is not a "dictator", nor is anyone on the team, but they also don't vote on plays. They know what each other is good at and, based on the situation given to them, execute in a way that is most likely to succeed.
- tomp 1y agoMarxism is amazing as long as you get to freely choose who to share the spoils with. In fact, this idea is so amazing, we should create a new political philosophy around it! How should we call it? Share-ism? Freedom-ism? Or, maybe just Capital-ism?
- mfru 1y agoLet's just call it Communism and have it.
- tomp 1y agoThe basis of Communism is theft (sharing stuff that you take from other people) and murder (killing those that resist).
- mfru 1y agothis is - of course - false. Communism is not theft (that only computes if you have a neoliberal viewpoint of taxes = theft) and the second point is just a polemic (also: capitalism is directly and indirectly the cause of hundreds of millions of deaths, all the US led color revolutions, anti-communist killings like in Jakarta or Vietnam etc., all the shock doctrine countries that still are not sprawling hubs of capitalist paradise).
