1. Can you elaborate on this objection to #Marxism?
2. There are arguments against #capitalism with zero reference to Marxism. Such arguments for #anticapitalism have been developed in modern terms by David Ellerman. Here is a PBS article introducing his argument for #WorkerCooperatives :

@light #Capitalism is an actually existing system characterized by a certain set of property relations between the employer and labor. These property relations violate the principle behind private property of getting the positive and negative fruits of one’s labor. Capitalism must be abolished in favor of economic #democracy, a system where all firms are structured as democratic worker #cooperatives.

Season 1 was funded internally by @workers_coop who unfortunately are unable to continue supporting Punchcard in the same way.

For Season 2, it's moving to a listener-funded model. The goal is simple: 🎯 50 listeners contributing £5/month to keep Punchcard going.

If you're able to support, please do so (via @opencollective): https://opencollective.com/workerscoop/projects/punchcard/contribute/custom-76924/checkout?interval=month&amount=5&name=&legalName=&email=
