      He’s entitled to keep the product of his labour, “hiring” isn’t a thing after the revolution since “money” isn’t a thing after the revolution, nor is “owning” a farm. If he “hires” a guy to plant crops, the hired man has done the labor and thus owns the crops. Since the farm is “the means of production,” “the man who owns the farm” does not actually own the farm, “the people” do.

        I’m talking about how farms are in capitalist US now. People who own the land rip off laborers, who tend to be migrant workers without a way of protecting themselves.

        I want the revolution to expropriatate the land and belong to to the people

          Oh he had listed those things as “people who should fear communism” so I thought you were on topic not just throwing semi-related jabs at farmers who will never read this, so I thought you meant like “only if he pays people less than minimum wage” so I popped in with “no no, not even if he does pay well.” My mistake!

            Edit: People like that do fear communism. They’re kulaks

            I changed “should” to “do”, because they don’t have to fear it, but most do because of their class position
