“Communism = abolish currency” is a common belief among Americans in my experience. It’s because they think capitalism is when you’ve moved past the barter system. And because their only understanding of communism is that it’s opposed to capitalism, they arrive at “Communism is when no money”.

Sabine Hossenfelder, a presumably well educated person, had an incredibly dumb video titled something like, “Capitalism is actually good”, where almost the whole thing was equating capitalism with having currency as a means of exchange.

Communism = abolish currency is not an incorrect way of viewing communism. It’s just incomplete.

Which is ironic considering the many other videos where she critisises academia for things can be boiled down to capitalism

My favourite is one of her videos criticising academia, where she says “I, as a woman who got into science due to positive discrimination, am against positive discrimination”. Like, bitch, you wouldn’t have been hired as a scientist if it weren’t for that

Smart people who have a high degree of eductation in one field, often wrongly think they have a strong understanding of subjects they haven’t or barely have studied. I noticed the same thing with Neil deGrasse Tyson.

In a really really round about way, he’s right, but its also because housing is free, food is free etc etc. so what would you seriously be using money for? Hoarders get the wall, obviously
