You can support communism without supporting Marxist-Leninism or Bolshevism.
Yeah, ok. Maybe if we got an AI to run everything.
If I spent the time to dump the human boss off my back, I would not turn around and give that power to a computer. Worker controlled labor puts the power in workers' hands.
Computers can help with communication of needs, but power should stay with workers.
But the power is not with the workers, it's with a representative body. And in a perfect union, the body would be able to consider and weigh workers needs with production costs. So why not let a computer do it?
As someone from postsoviet state, I could not agree more. Those pushing soviet union as example of comunist project are really not doing any good for the comunist projext.
