    You already have a mean of production in your hand. But the only thing you produce is stupid memes.

      Even if they did produce something, Jeff Bezos would steal it as soon as it started making a buck.

      Seizing the means of production made sense when that was the leverage the owners used to strip the surplus value from you.

      Today, they use gatekept platform and a captive audience with AI manipulation to insert themselves between you and the customers and strip you of your surplus value.

      Now pay Bezos’ 40% tax until Amazon basic is ready to outcompete out of the platform entirely. Welcome to the second page of Google !

        But they are. Because we live in a service economy and the only thing you produce are services. Phone is enough. Use it wisely.
