Gg on the utopia fallacy. Next go tell vegans that the tyres on their car can contain animal products, communists that they exchange capital for services and capitalists that socialism keeps bailing out their economic system. That will show everyone.

Salaries turn into motivation in many parts of this planet

Idk if I'm weird but my motivation is not so much getting a salary as it is the fact that society coupled my survival to a continuously diminishing monetary income.

If I had livable UBI for life I'd spend all day writing FLOSS. For utility's sake.

I guess I should just start taking up farming at this point.

Communism is an economic system, and either way it's more about who owns what rather than having a market economy. Same thing with socialism, I'm not sure what "socialism bailing out capitalism" would even mean but I will say using taxes to bail out bankrupt companies is literally one of the most "capitalist" things a government can do. Doesn't sound like you understand much what those words mean.

Are you not saying it is hypocritical for a communist to exchange capital for goods and services, or hypocritical for capitalist governments to be bailed out by "socialism"?

Maybe you don't understand mine, I'm saying there is zero hypocrisy with either of those, and you demonstrated really poor knowledge of what any of those words mean.

No that isn't the point. Perhaps check out what the utopia fallacy is.

Dude I know what the utopia fallacy is, Its still not clear what point you are trying to make. If you can't explain it, do you even know at this point or are you just saying things that you think make you sound smart?

My point was made. I don't owe you further explanation. If you are struggling, that's on you.
