> seizing the means of production from the capitalist class

Yikes.

Without due respect for private property, “seizing” always ends in violence. Always.

When Bill Gates owns more farmland in the United States than anyone else, and he uses his investments to acquire more and more and as Black Rock prices families out of homes as they become the largest owner of single family homes.... You want to pretend like we don't live in the system we do and you clearly don't understand capitalism if you don't understand this. Seizing the means means taking back what was always ours that come from inherited wealth and wealth gained through the exploitation of others

Imaginary problems utilizing resentment to push humanity into slavery. That is what you are doing.

Karl Marx didn't see the seizure of the means of production as a way to create equality. That was the bait. His primary intention was to use it to control Mankind. His intention was to change human nature and recreate him in the way he saw was more natural.

So Bill Gates is the largest farmholder. So what?

So blackrock is maximizing profit. So what?

Wherever the free market has roots, society is thriving. Anything controlled by government/committee, is dying.

That is the important perspective.

The rich have always waged violence against the poor and it isn't even close. Every war is a war of the rich you destroy the poor and take more of the world's wealth into their own hands
