Then you will be interested to hear that Marx railed against the "equalitarians" (see this excerpt from Critique of the Gotha Programme), and that Marxists (communists) do not want "perfect equality" and to award people equally for different tasks.

Oh look, implying that the other person is mentally unwell, a classic tactic!

[...] It is difficult for me to imagine what "personal liberty" is enjoyed by an unemployed person, who goes about hungry, and cannot find employment.

Real liberty can exist only where exploitation has been abolished, where there is no oppression of some by others, where there is no unemployment and poverty, where a man is not haunted by the fear of being tomorrow deprived of work, of home and of bread. Only in such a society is real, and not paper, personal and every other liberty possible.

Until we address what led us to capitalism we will never see a better world.

Time? Reality? Science? Humans? Feudalism? Like wtf are you going to address?

You title says whonix, but the text mentions QubesOS. Which one? This distinction is very important.

Edit: in QubesOS the networking is handled by the sys-net qube. If the networking icon does not show up in the tray make sure the sys-net qube is started. If it is, check what programs are available for the sys-net qube in the start menu (hopefully some networking software is available. But I dont have QubesOS in front of me so I cannot check) otherwise try and start a terminal in sys-net and run the command nmtui

I'm not even joking. I do not have a good enough understanding of Marxism to tell if you are correct, nor to [do anything] with TropicalDingdong's arguments.

No one has swayed or convinced me cuz I'm a liberal.

Fundamentally they both want the same thing in the end

I don't think that is entirely true. Marxist and Anarchist have different analyses and therefore come to different conclusions.

Finding good books is can be difficult, so if you want to, you could make another list with books that could be read after this one.
