Love to be a fundamentally social animal, kept physically isolated by car-centric infrastructure, with the majority of my social engagement mediated through tightly controlled platforms which replace active engagement with passive consumption. Can we seize the means of socialization already?

Tbh I think we should all be a bit more concerned about how we're all being algorithmically socialized from birth by tech monopolist psychos

Engels on 'Social Murder'
When one individual inflicts bodily injury upon another, such injury that death results, we call that deed manslaughter; when the assailant knew in advance that the injury would be fatal, we call this deed murder.
But when society places hundreds of proletarians in such a position that they inevitably meet a too early and an unnatural death, one which is quite as much a death by violence as that by the sword or the bullet; when it deprives thousands of the necessaries of life, places them under conditions in which they cannot live - forces them ... to remain in such conditions until that death ensues which is the inevitable consequence - knows that these thousands of victims must perish, and yet permits these conditions to remain, its deed is murder just as surely as the deed of the single individual ...
Engels, The Condition of the Working Class in England (1845 [1967]), p. 126 (Panther Press)

The idea of “social murder” is super useful, and we need to get comfortable using it. Engels is the best, man - reading him feels like finally acknowledging the obvious reality everyone wants you to ignore

I think that as communists we have an obligation not only to explain to people how their social alienation is the result of capitalist control over social infrastructure, but also to present a model of how these resources could be managed in a socially positive way once collectivized

Consumer prices in the world's second-largest economy were in particular affected by falling costs of food. Fresh vegetable prices dropped 7.3 per cent on year during June, while prices of fruit fell 8.7 per cent and those of beef tumbled 13.4 per cent.

It's so funny to me that groceries getting cheaper ("deflation") is treated as unambiguously bad by the financial press

It's ridiculous that we allow capitalists to control every aspect of our digital lives, when their pecuniary and ideological iterests are to keep us addicted and isolated
