So I think
I think we all play this game
the game of who has the highest quality of life
the most productive high quality contentful life
and right now
we have these two competing ideas about this game
how to set up the perfect version of this game
with the least amount of disadvantage
basically how do we make all starting points equal so that the game is unbiased against anyone
so basically capitalism is a version that is unequal
its biased against some groups of people
so those people will always win
whereas everyone else will only sometimes win
in communism it's viewed that like all starting points are equal
so everyone will always win
because there will be a certain threshold that is like once you reach this point you have a contentful life
and basically everyone always reaches that threshold
some people go really far from that threshold but everyone is still past the threshold
everyone wins
its supposedly the most fair version of this game
whereas in capitalism there are some people who know how to abuse the system
only some people
because the game is flawed and they basically found like a hack
its a loophole in the rules
so they can always win and they know they can always win
and dont tell help anyone else do it
then there are people who don't know you can always win
and if they did know they wouldn't know how to do it
so its like they're playing the game naively without knowing anyone cheats
then you have a lot of people who are aware that there is a way to always win
but they dont know how to do the hack
so to them they're playing a game that is designed, from their perspective, to fuck them over
so its an uneven system
but its not so bad of an uneven system so that it cant function
like its still a winnable game
you can still get to that threshold of contentfulness even when you know you're disadvantaged and dont know how to do the hack
so since its still winnable that means like society doesnt completely collapse under capitalism
just fluctuates between almost collapse and almost utopia
but usually landing in between
basically you're fucked
