Communism is Already Here. We Just Have to Take It.

by T. E. Moon

Starting from the historical shift from feudalism to capitalism, T. E. Moon frames the present as an analogous moment of transition. He contends that contemporary logistical networks and data systems already instantiate key features of a planned economy, overcoming prior technical limits. Sketching a model of alternative labor coordination beyond the price signal, Moon ultimately argues that the nation-state and platform monopolies now function as a Katechon—a restrainer—deliberately obstructing the emergence of a new material order.
