Which of course has been explained to marxists time and time again, it is by far, the most retarded way to measure value. It requires trust in a system that is responsible for more that 100 poeple (about where the limits if a functioning trust based system can be maintained). It is also easily countermanded with fraud and cronyism, as demonstrated by every single implementation of Marx's ideas. It also creates an elite class, the people who define what is "needed" inthe society. This too isdemonstrated by every single mplementation of Marx's ideas. It fails in countless ways yet marxists, cling to this idea.

Its a good thing that someone with 68 followers and 17 followers, who both don't understand money, wont have too much impact on the world.

There is no capitalism on the planet. Anywhere. The places closest to capitalism (Scandinavia, New Zealand, Hongkong, singapore) are some of the best places to live on the planet. (here is a list, socialist countries are on the bottom half for the most part: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_economic_freedom

The problem with capitalism, is that there isn't enough capitlism. Psychopaths who wish to control capitalism create power hierarchies and push the world toward fascism.

Labor tokens? you need to get into crypto to understand the full hilarity of this idea. Remember I mentioned the communism requires small trusted networks? This is the failing of this idea also. All systems will be gamed. Humans are self serving first, communal second. I assume you think 1 hour of sewer cleaning is worth the same as 1 hour of astrophysics research. Or did the group who decided what is and what isn't "socially neccessary" (the group as easily corruptable as politicians in socialist countries) decided differently for you?

Your "article" is just as full of incoherent fallacies, conflations, and pure ignorance of history and current events as his is. Colonialism is not Capitalism. Imperialism is not capitalism. State capitalism is socialism, not capitalism. Corporatocracies are only possible through implementation of socialist practices. The goal of capitlalism is decentralization of power over the economy, thus making the economy equally available to everyone. You seem to prefer the opposite.
