Seize the means of production comes from a conceptually separate part of anti-capitalist critique then workers' control/workers' self-management. It is common to conflate these two strands of anti-capitalist thoughts. It is technically possible to have common ownership of the means of production without workers' self-management and workers' self-management without common ownership of the means of production. Universal worker coops only requires abolishing wage labor not private ownership
I don't think the person I was responding to is ready for this level of analysis, okay?
Thanks for assuming I'm an idiot who doesn't know what I'm talking about. Pleasure to meet you too!
I didn't assume you're an idiot - I did assume that not everyone on here is familiar with a hundred-years worth of anarcho-syndicalist theory, okay?
Fair enough
