That’s no strawman. You just refuse to see that there is no universal way to decide upon value that fits everyone’s notion of it. If both people in an exchange come away satisfied, did one exploit the other? How do you strictly define the excess value on each side of the transaction? Your idea of a profit-less society doesn’t consider how we’d pragmatically exchange our labor to achieve that.
You can continue to pretend I haven’t thought of any of this and continue to talk down to me as you build a larger and larger strawman, it’s pretty funny.
We aren’t mind readers. If you think we are wrong, explain why. You can call an attempt at defining your poor communication a strawman, but it only shields your ideas from the test of debate.
You don’t need to produce for profit, you can produce for use. Society can be organized in such a manner without having portions of society dedicated to brainwashing the masses into being consumers of useless goods like party favors for the sake of fat cats getting richer.
So your issue is people consensually exchanging their labor?
Nope, but you’re free to continue building a strawman.
