Ah yes, I can see the clear line from "every business does not lend itself to direct democracy" to racism and dehumanization. Though I do appreciate a good ad hominem from time to time.

That whole response rant is crass, alarmist, and most of all specious. Luckily you made my point for me: people (or worker) can simultaneously have value, as you surely do as a person, but have not a fucking clue what they are talking about in some areas. In those areas, asking for your opinion is... well, a clear and obvious mistake.

Have a great time with all those you hold dear and good luck with any directly democratic companies you start. 👍
