Socialism

Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.


Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.

Thought this was pretty interesting and entertaining. Made me dream for a while about what living in a society with a mature library economy would be like. Figured I'd share and try to get a discussion going. Enjoy!

We need to actually do it! Anyone could start one. Someone in the no-buy community, or an actual librarian, would be the best choice.

I think hobbyist communities are also a good starting point. For example a bicycle community sharing bikes/tools/accessories. All it would take is a handful of people with an interest in common to get a private X library going.
