Food is literally rule
Edit: Could you please chill it with the taking everything so bloody seriously? It’s low-hanging fruit leftist agitprop from c/196. It doesn’t aim to be coherent with the very letter of Marx or whatever leftist group/cult-leader you prefer.
The top comment in the posted image is just stupid, food takes work, like a lot of work. Whether the land is private/public/something else, it takes a lot of work to maintain a steady supply of food.
Yes, food takes a lot of work. But we’re a lot of people with very advanced technology. If we got rid of a few bullshit and counter-productive jobs, the work each and everyone of us would have to do would vanish in comparison to today’s hustle culture.
I think the problem with your messaging here is because it focuses more on the fact that we could restructure society to meet people’s needs rather than profits, but your post doesn’t really describe how we get from here to there. Obviously agitprop is short and oversimplified, but some subjects work better with added context.
