18·2 years agoCity. Very much looking forward to how much better cities will be with socialist development.
GOODS FOR THE PEOPLE puts it well:
The future belongs to sustainable smart cities.
Ecologically speaking, increasingly concentrated mega cities is the only path toward a future of harmonious integration of humans and nature. Socialist cities of the future, such as the Forrest City being developed in the PRC, can develop and function in much more rational, healthy, and communal ways than random chaotic development under the tyranny of private ownership of land and industry.

I hadn’t heard of Hernández before, but I was intrigued by the title so I gave it a listen. He said he doesn’t subscribe to dialectical materialism and his entire framework of defining socialism without even considering the ownership of the means of production strikes me as deeply idealistic, so I’m not so sure how seriously I want to take his work.
