    Are you saying workers have never successfully shared ownership of the Means of Production? That’s false, there are numerous examples, even Worker Co-operatives are more stable with higher employee satisfaction than Capitalist companies. You could take that same exact argument and use it against Capitalism in pre-revolution France and it would make just as much sense then as it does now.

    Capitalism itself “works,” but it has numerous flaws that result in increasing disparity, enshittification, and exploitation. From the Tendency for the Rate of Profit to Fall, to the Boom/Bust cycle by which Capitalists acquire vast amounts of cheaper Capital, it certainly isn’t a good system.
