How? Please explain what this means. I am advocating for democratically controlling production so that it can service the needs and wants of the people, rather than wealthy Capitalists as it does in curreny society.

You're advocating revolution, if I'm reading your words correctly.

That involves a radical restructuring of society. You're advocating violently modifying the roles of individuals to fit your new goals. That has historically and always involved a bloodletting.

As I understand it Marxism is about being authoritarian in government (telling people what to do, and punishing those who don't comply) and ensuring via government that resources are equally distributed. This concentrates power among the ruling elite. Historically, this continues the corruption it claims to end. So, what I'm saying essentially - that Marxism is a neat philosophy - It doesn't line up with reality or achieve its stated goals.

It does kill all the dissenting opinions and create the echo chamber that has consistently been corrupted and hasn't stood the test of time.

So if there's to be a bloodletting. Let it begin with those asking for it, first.

As I mentioned, the examples of this working out in real life. Not so good. The USSR, currently dissolved and not a model I'd be interested in emulating. The folks I know who lived in it don't want it back either.

Cuba, I'd say they had equality for citizens which they don't, not a good example either.

China... Really?? Marxism? Really?? We're glossing over Mao Zedong and a history of mass murder.

"The truths of Marxism are myriad, but it all comes down to one line: 'Rebellion is justified!'" When the CCP was waging revolution and still trying to gain national power, this statement was a powerful shot in the arm. Once it became the ruling party, to bring this up again was to invite revolt against itself. That was exactly what happened in the Cultural Revolution. Its result was catastrophic, because Mao as a revolutionary was unable to make the transition from "breaking" to "making". He once claimed: "There is no making without breaking. The making is in the breaking." But that was just revolutionary romanticism misaligned with reality. In truth, it is much harder to "make" than to "break".

You're expressing wonderful ideals.

They don't seem to line up with the execution in the real world though.

My argument is that it won't and hasn't ever.

When a developer writes a program that doesn't do what it's supposed to, it gets rewritten. Marxists just keep trying the same philosophy. Maybe if we murder more people it'll work.

Because every proletariat revolution has resulted in equality and not a speed run to mass poverty... Why would it work this time? When has it ever worked in reality? Where's the beautiful shining example of Marxist success?

Let's copy that now. (I can't find an example of it).

When do you realize revolution is an acceleration of entropy in society.

You're proposing to bloodlet society and end up with less for the people, and more for the rich.

The lazy part was your statement being at odds with your source, while discounting other folk's experience or skin.

I know of more than one person who has experienced sunburn from closed windowed (newer)vehicle rides in full sunlight.

Yes. The answer is yes, glass doesn't prevent sunburns.

It will delay them.

Article states, accurately; "you can still get burned with long enough exposure".

Your link disagrees with you. Hoping nobody pays attention? Hoping for up votes?

False fact post, bad faith actor, or llm. All 3?

From your link: "You can still get burned with long enough exposure."

Not to be pedantic, commercial systems do go through lock replacements if they are budgeting properly.

A guest wouldn't notice unless they were watching maintenance teams replacing lock internal components.
