    Seizing the means of production seemed more reasonable when there were actually people producing things. Nowadays seems like it’d be more of the call for a robot uprising.

      Commodities are still produced, just largely in the Global South. The Global North needs to re-industrialize and even the load.

        Definitely, but the big industrialized stuff that was a focus originally is much more automated now. It’s much less glamorous to seize a t shirt or rubber band making plant than a car or tractor factory.
