True democracy is only possible when the means of production are publicly owned. Only then can resources and labour be directed in a way that benefits majority of the people.

Humans have only ever existed on a tiny spec of dirt for a brief cosmic instant. Our inability to comprehend our place in the universe is driving us towards extinction.

Capitalist enterprises should be treated the same way as wild animals. No matter how nice they might appear they will still try to eat you if they think they can get away with it.

The fact that wearing animal hides and furs is still in fashion tells me that our civilization is not quite as advanced as we'd like to think.

capitalism is a deeply irrational economic system

Marx saw production through a very different lens from capitalism. He valued self-realisation is to be valued as an end in itself, rather than reduced to the instrument of some other goal. Meanwhile, capitalism forces us to see everything through the lens of exchange value.
