I'm a communist, you should be one, too!

The first article...

Factories were also “confiscated and controlled by workmen’s committees, either term possessing for the owners’ almost equal significance,”

...So threat of violence/theft was required for any hope of this working?

Nice....

If the workers stop playing crapitalism who you gonna exploit to pay your guards to keep us out of your factory?
We wont have to confiscate factories, they will be abandoned, the 'owners' cant man them all.

Those authors were trapped in their time.
Most people couldnt read, of course they were more brutish.

Guidelines, not authoritative....?

You didn't read your link article?

THEFT was required to implement the communism...mmm... where have we seen that before...?

Yes, they reference taking the factories by force, it is part of being trapped in their time.
Today we merely squat the factories when they are abandoned.
No need to push the owners out, what are they going to do with a factory but no workers?
Work it themselves?
Who are their customers?

Keep working, stop paying means the owners are superfluous.
If they are over 50 they can retire, if they want to hang out they can as long as the workers agree to keep doing the work.

When we dont have to pay for anything, only need to work 20k hours between 20 and 50, and can live the jetset lifestyle, not many owners are not going to willingly give up their factories.
