Why not just have capital be individually owned but in a closer to uniform way? Wouldn’t this alleviate both complaints? People being free to do what they want with their stuff, and generally having stuff to do things with, and also free from the tyranny of the majority?
Under capitalism, "freedom" is when one person owns everything and tells everyone else what to work on. Democracy over what we work on is called socialist "authoritarianism". We have been convinced of this because the people who own everything also own the news.

That's irrealistic because: -1. It has been demostrated historicaly that capital accumulates in the long run. Money is the best way to make money, you can even sell and it It's called "investement" or "loans".

It kind of stops being democratic when a handful of people have a million times more votes than anyone else.

We need a sequel to the Marx/Rothbard stranded on an island comic, but this time with Henry George making an appearance.

Soviet-style socialism called itself democratic, but that's just because they also owned the news

...isolated in a backward country after the German revolution was crushed. Stalin led a political counter-revolution and bt 1928 was anti-socialist (ironically at the time he forced collectivisation to avoid his capitalist former allies taking power). USSR was never socialist.
