 I hear that. I also hear the libertarian in the back saying, "Then leave." If the tool makes good workers miserable, the company should lose them. Why does that not solve it?

 A center can move. It can seize the warehouse before the owner empties it, keep trucks running during a strike, stop capital flight, print the notices, and put guards where the fascists were. If the old ruling class is already planning retaliation, a temporary dictatorship of the workers can sound less like a power grab and more like not getting buried alive.

 Bread and schools are not abstractions. A government that builds housing, clinics, literacy, factories, and food systems has changed material life.
