Alright, for a serious question: I have always wondered and never really found a satisfying answer to why something like Cybersyn doesn't currently exist in any socialist states. I'm sure that it's complicated and multifaceted and there's a lot to say about material conditions and internal politics and all that jazz, which is surely a lot of juicy stuff to get people arguing over.
I'm also specifically wondering about the role that 3D printing and CNC might or should have in a more automated Cybersyn-like society. It feels like that technology has the potential of creating a shift towards extremely local production for a lot of things, which I think would be really good for the environment, for building local community, and for strengthening individual freedom.
Geopolitics most likely. What happened to the last guy who tried Cybersyn?
boy he die!!! shit boy!!! boyyoass how he have die over some SOCIALISM!!!
