"Rather, as it is based on an economic system without classes"

which is a stupid idea and i'll demonstrate why again for like the tenth time

how are you going to prevent different classes from developing if no one has more power over the others and you acknowledge that people are different?

 

i suppose you'd have to disregard that last part to address this question as socialists generally do

Wait, if no one has more power over the others how would classes develop? And yes people are different, but do you know what classes are? In today's current society there are people belonging in the same class that are drastically different.

"Wait, if no one has more power over the others how would classes develop? "

are men for example stronger than women? 

continuing on from that are some men also stronger then other men?

what about bravery? what about cunning? what about psychopathy?

 

i mean you've interacted with other people right?

 

" but do you know what classes are?"

well i'm assuming that since we appear to be having a conversation about classes, that we both acknowledge what classes are but to clarify what are you calling a class?

"In today's current society there are people belonging in the same class that are drastically different."

in what ways?
