You said if people were more empathetic we would have a better Mode of Production, but the process is reversed.

OK I see now. I think that both are true in a way. It’s kind of a negative feedback loop. The mode of production makes more people greedy and less empathetic, and that makes people more opposed to changing to a fair mode of production. Again, that’s just my opinion, I am not an economist, just a simple Prole.

Definitely agree with you that it starts with the mode of production. Appreciate you clarifying, and hope you have a nice day.

No problem! They reinforce each other, yes, but it starts with the Mode of Production, which is why as the productive forces improve, so too does social knowledge which causes a shift.
