Like, yeah, co-ops aren't going to be the one weird trick that undoes capitalism, but they're not meant to be, and we wouldn't want co-ops to be a weapon.

They're the better world we're striving for, where companies exist because all of the parts of the company want them to exist and if that desire fades or can't be sustained then the company goes away.

Not lasting forever is a feature.
Bring back the days when x Company meant something more like Fellowship of the x, rather than a self sustaining superorganism that continues to eat people decades after x has been made onsolete.

Edit - typing this made me realise that we are living in a world where Rivendell pays Gandalf to creste new Saurons so they can keep getting paid to supply expeditions to Mount Doom.
