b'This is the first part of our giant chat with Nick Chavez and Phil Neel about their new essay published by Endnotes \\u2013 Forest and Factory \\u2013 which offers a truly magnificent argument for how to confront the daunting task of overcoming capitalism, for how to imagine the seemingly impossible alternatives of a non-capitalist society, and for how to build the necessary reality of a communist society. A communism that not only functions, but flourishes by lifting humanity out of the pits of hell known as capital and advancing a model of life based on free time, free association, and free abundance of everything needed and desired. Their essay is not merely another case of magical realism \\u2013 wishing for utopia and ignoring the hard parts \\u2013 rather it offers a serious, scientific, and specific analysis of communist construction.\\n\\n\\u2022\\u2022\\u2022 Forest and Factory: The Science and the Fiction of Communism | Nick Chavez, Phil Neel https://endnotes.org.uk/posts/forest-and-factory \\n\\u2022\\u2022\\u2022 Order a zine of the essay here https://shop.haters.life/products/forest-and-factory-zine-2-pack \\n\\u2022\\u2022\\u2022 Follow Nick https://twitter.com/DFManufracture \\n\\nSubscribe to hear more analysis and commentary in our premium episodes every week! https://www.patreon.com/thismachinekills \\n\\nHosted by Jathan Sadowski (www.twitter.com/jathansadowski) and Edward Ongweso Jr. (www.twitter.com/bigblackjacobin).
