As a communist, I don’t think we should pay anyone for their work.
Remember when parents raised their own kids, for free? I remember. These days it takes two incomes to raise a family, so the parents have to hire babysitters to watch the kids, so they can afford to have kids. That’s fucked up. Putting capitalism in childcare just resulted in neglected kids and parents who don’t get to see their families. I don’t think we should pay people for raising kids.
I don’t think we should pay people for any kind of work. I think we should do all kinds of work the same way we used to raise kids.
The appropriate response to capitalism’s existence is not to do more capitalism. We did parenting for free for a long time during capitalism. We did mods for free for a long time during capitalism. We should be working to create anarchic structures like the family or the modding community to de-capitalise our lives.

That’s not what I’m saying. We live in a capitalist society, so people need to be paid
