• human behaviour

    One word away from “human nature”. I hope you understand that our behaviour changes with our environment, e.g. our economic system. The behaviour seen right now is under a system that encourages e.g. competition, and one where if a capitalist (the owner of a company) does something that is nice, but lowers profit, a more ruthless one will likely take their place.

    I encourage you to read theory, see Cowbees list for recommendations.

      The system definitely encourages and rewards explotation, but why do people do it at all? Will this behaviour stop if we penalize it? Or just gently teach the children after the bloody revolution?

      How do we get past the notion of power corrupting people? All I’m arguing is that communism is not an outright solution for society.

      I promise to read up on dialectic materialism, but the end of link you sent mentions getting a gun. That’s just bad advice.
