The solution to 1984 is 1973!
An-caps are 21st century communists.
I just had this odd ball thought, see what you think.
Early communists (pre-marxian) such as the diggers and ranters of civil war England were interested in the common ownership of land. At that time the important "means of production" was land because agriculture was the main economic activity.
Communists of the 19th and 20th century were interested in the common ownership of industrial processes. At that time the important "means of production" were mines and factories.
In the 21st century the important means of production is knowledge and information. And who in this age advocates common ownership of this means of production? Answer: an-caps! Are an-caps then 21st century communists?
