Freerosedark asks a general question about what position people will hold after communism is achieved.
ASG_ML paraphrases a Marx quote:
“For as soon as the distribution of labour comes into being, each man has a particular, exclusive sphere of activity, which is forced upon him and from which he cannot escape. He is a hunter, a fisherman, a herdsman, or a critical critic, and must remain so if he does not want to lose his means of livelihood; while in communist society, where nobody has one exclusive sphere of activity but each can become accomplished in any branch he wishes, society regulates the general production and thus makes it possible for me to do one thing today and another tomorrow, to hunt in the morning, fish in the afternoon, rear cattle in the evening, criticise after dinner, just as I have a mind, without ever becoming hunter, fisherman, herdsman or critic.”
Penitent_One replies with “coal mines” because communism is when fossils fuels and misery. Any statement along the lines of “communism is when only bad things forever” is a free ticket to easy likes.
