My coop power company installed fiber, so my ISP is a coop. IMO I'd rather this that purely nationalized.

Co-ops are cool, but markets in general have far too many disadvantages for me to advocate for market-based Socialism over a non-market solution.

Short of a complete revolution, market Socialisim is probably the most viable path out of capitalism. It doesn't have to stay there, and shouldn't, but it'll be a whole lot less messy than a revolution.

Depends on the country, honestly. In America, I'm more inclined to believe Syndicalism would work, reform won't meaningfully happen from within.

In general, I'm anti-tendency and believe that the material conditions of each space need to be analyzed independently.
