Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.
Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.

Subscription economy (what we’re getting) vs library economy (what we want)
I was just reading about car companies requiring subscription fees to “unlock” functions of the car you own. From that straight to this. My brain is in a whirl right now…
You mean the mercedes' "pay $1200/year to unlock better acceleration" thing? That's fucked up.
