This is kind of how I try to describe cooperatives to some people. It works if you think of freedom and autonomy as conservative ideas which cooperatives bring without central planning socialism, while still being socialist. Also been pleading my leftist circles for years to try to appeal to a wider audience in a similar way. If only we recognize that we've all been lied to and propagandized to believe in capitalism, speaking in a way the "right" can get on board with would only help them start listening to reasonable solutions.

I'm a libertarian. Universal basic income would eliminate the need for less efficient welfare programs, cut overhead spending, and feed money back into the economy.
