well, it depends on the culture of the commune but let's skip this and i'll just focus on commune as a tool
if it's used as a tool for escapism, good but it will never scale and ''everyone should be in one'' it's just impossible
if, like i dream, it's used as a tool to offload work of a group of people to allow them to make better politics because being much more resilient to capital swings, cool af u.u
obviously it's not binary and what i described it's not even a model with 2 opposites, but i wanted to focus on these cases
weird in betweens like project kamp are very interesting but I still think they focus too much on the being indipendent rather than using the commune as a tool for "greater" scope.
