Rock climbing. I got into over summer but I only have time to go once or twice a week at most. And that's just indoors. A whole outdoor trip would take way too much of my time, time that I don't have.
What would you when you get in this undefined yet not capitalist utopia and are forced to work long hours at a job you didn't choose to help further the cause of the revolution?
Something new every day. Create. Spend time with my children. Volunteer my time and knowledge.
I think about this at least a little bit most days.
I'd finish some video games again.
Work on more music, ideally practice piani again to get my theory back on track.
Make projects, communal gardening etc..
Outside the selfish self-enrichment kinda stuff, teach kids programming, and participate more in my hema club.
I'd probably still be a mechanical engineer, but maybe I could have gotten some more education in the direction of nuclear power and/or automation. I might have also had another kid instead of just one.
Edit: I'd also like to learn and get good at welding. It would be cool to not only engineer a nuclear power plant, but to help actually build it as well. Then again, I'd probably never get good enough at welding to do so unless I devoted myself to the trade. Maybe I could just get some shifts as a plant operator after it's built.
It'd give me more time to learn languages. I want to learn most Romance languages then later some Germanic languages. I'd have more time to read, study, and learn from the "For Dummies" series books I bought.
Without capitalism, I'd probably be serf like my great-grandparents were. There's a lot to criticize about capitalism, but it's still an improvement on its predecessor.
For a lot of people, it probably still doesn't feel dissimilar enough from serfdom, just with a lot more parties to be indebted/obligated to than your one feudal lord. Still at risk of becoming a landless vagrant if you don't keep up with your dues.
