Seems like you know why it failed and how to fix it.

Oh damn, so nobody ever really got rid of a few rich families? That seems like quite the oversight.

I’m not going to waste time trying to divide uo my table scraps under capitalism. That’s tedious stressful nonsense.

From whose pocket? Who gives a shit.

Do you, in the grocery store, grab every brand of pasta and figure out protein:carb:$ ratios manually, every time you walk down the aisle, or do you just decide whether you want pasta or not, and throw some in your bag if you do?

If the former, do you do this for every single thing in the store? How many hours does it take you every single time?

It’s not worth the time effort or attention to pretend some small extra fucked up corner of capitalism can pretend to be slightly less fantastical and violent.

End this shit. Give everyone what they need. Help people find food and housing without requiring them to sing and dance for it.

Maybe, if it were convenient. Won’t be though, so it’s not something I’ve considered at length. They went after the archives though, and I think the entire concept of paying for media should take any hit that can be issued in retaliation.

Oh. And when was it overthrown?

So, we keep doing this because of kayfabe and terrorism?

What if we just stopped doing… All of that? It seems pretty god damn silly, and I don’t see why i should.

How do you know what overthrowing it does, again?

This ownership stuff feels real suspicious. What and why? This is getting increasingly unconvincing the further down we go.

It’s really not something i consider worth my time and attention. I know your liberal programmed virtues tell you that supporting artists under capitalism with your dollar-vote is the done thing, but i don’t agree and won’t be wasting any more of my time trying to reason you out of such a convoluted position on something that barely matters.

And… Why do we keep doing this, again?

Progress!

Okay so now we’re right back to ‘why?’.

Sorry. Common misconception I felt the need to correct. From that period of history people just assume things about and treat vibes as facts.

Artists can’t pay rent now. They make music though.

I work for a better world. I do not look for excuses to reward corporations that steal from artists to burn libraries, thanks.

Well, no. Infant mortality was crazy high, health problems were different, but life expectancies were 60-70 years if you survived puberty. We only recently hit that in agricultural hierarchalist society, and are slipping back below it.

And that’s what exactly?

Never pay for music again, and don’t let anyone you know do that shit either.

They come for archives–nothing should be off limits.
