    I think the biggest issue here is that we aren’t really speaking on common ground. I’m a Marxist-Leninist, and can offer theory to show what that means but will put that aside for now.

    The “tragedy of the commons” is not what you are using it to mean. You are referring to a lack of regulation as “tragedy of the commons,” which is not the correct usage of it.

    Secondly, Capitalism erases its own foundations, it naturally centralizes and erases profit and competition, ergo it inevitably produces crisis and its own erasure.

      I am correctly using tragedy of the commons. A well-understood solution to the tragedy of the commons is regulation. This is equivalent to saying a lack of regulation can cause the tragedy of the commons.
