most of these people seemed to take this super serious and at the same time prove they know absolutely nothing about how it would work. these people would die in a week. either from other commies killing them for being lazy or from having to get outside and do actual physical work because their skills mean less than nothing in a "commune" setting. sparking passion? popcorn popper? proofreader? jesus christ. what do these people think a commune is...

They seem to take it completely for granted that all the comforts of modern living are (for better or worse) produced by the capitalist "system" which they love to complain about. That might be why they think that they can tear down the "system" and yet all the fruits of said system would miraculously just remain in place. Like fair enough if they want to not work and laze about all day as long as they accept a minimal living standard which is only fit for survival. Yet those people are all talking about eating popcorn, watching movies and "studying" theories. Ironically, they all sound like the privileged bourgeoisie in the 20th century who only engaged in "intellectual" and leisure activities while remaining completely oblivious/uncaring about where their food/water comes from.

From the r/4chan post of Twitter screenshots detailing how these people would all be tarot readers and K-6 educators...
This is literally the best thing i have ever read.
This is like a complex french pastry, crafted by artisanal chefs, each layer, a new sensation. Each perfect complimentary flavor, a different emotion stoked up from the resting silt of your psyche.
A mouthwatering masterpiece of memetic mirth.
There is so much here, so much truth, so much sadness, such a depth of earnest longing that is usually hidden from us under layers of bitter irony and unbroken theoretical proclamations and rants on how to run the world.
They just want to be part of a small village, a community, to serve a integral purpose and be loved for who they are, and appreciated for what they do. But almost invariably, places like this, small tight-knit villages are right-wing, they are wary of outsiders because a small community is uniquely disadvantaged by even small changes brought by newcomers.
Almost all of the women posting their genuine desires are functionally describing being a stay-at-home mother in a small right-wing community. Cooking, cleaning, gardening, looking after the kids, supervising their education, advising, tutoring, observing who gets what and maintaining fairness.
But they cannot see it, they cannot comprehend they are the fool in The Gateless Gate, who is searching by the light of an oil-lamp for a way to cook their rice. In one breath they scorn the very thing and types of people that can and will provide them the environment their soul cries out for. In a toxic swamp of unfamiliar city-living and godless, soulless corporatist posturing, under the heavy pressure and the mind-breaking bullshit of socially-violent, politically correct 'simon-says' office-tier environments, these lost folk yearn for meaning in their lives, whilst having been conditioned to hate the very people that are most capable of providing that environment for them.
These are the last gasps of drowning men and women, the last writhing attempt at clinging to life, before being drowned in a polluted, fetid sea of corporate/governmental-conditioning and never-ending work, that will pump directly into their minds, as in The Matrix, the illusion that they are on the cusp of revolution, that they are the vanguard of change and the daring anti-corporate, anti-state activists who are humanities best hope to attain this simple life they dream of.
This is the last time they will even be allowed to know the color red exists, for all the pills henceforth will be blue.

They don't unionize for the same reason real engineers don't join unions. It's supposed to be a professional grade where you're not just a regular slob who's paid by the hour for dumb labour. In the past people in these roles would generally have their shit together as we had an effective system of bullying and hazing throughout teenage and early adulthood to ensure that if you made it into the professional world as and engineer doctor r whatever that you at least had some level of resilience and wouldn't cut off your pee pee at the first little crisis you hit
