Power dichotomy will always slander any "third option". They'll even say something dumb on its face like third way is "x". There are only two solutions, "with us" or "against us". Anything outside these choices is literally unthinkable for the power structure. The power structure cannot imagine a future where it does not exist. If you ask the unthinkable alternative, they will default to "oh you must be one of the enemy". We know that category well. They stand for every thing we don't stand for.

Describe what you consider the "third way" that isn't capitalists owning the means of production, workers owning the means, or the state owning the means.

No, I asked for a third pill. I didn't say "take my third pill". I also hope we can escape the narrow minded concept of a society centered on the tug of war to "own the means".
