Sorry, I know we have to be focused on F but Marxism really pisses the
hell out of me.  I am am a variety of anarchist all my own most similar
to anarcho-capitalism.  Doesn't matter if you are starving, you can
still look inward, thats the beauty.  No matter how "oppressed" you are
no one can have your mind (this is where I have major conflicts with F).

Ultimately, progressivity is just plain theft.
