i asked a capitalist to feed me when i was hungry and he laughed and told me to get a job. i replied, ‘i applied to 200 jobs in the last year’ and this smug expression settled on his face and he said, ‘try harder, fuckass.’
And everyone clapped and handed him £200.
It’s true! I seen it!
I can solve every issue right now but I need complete dictatorship to do it.
Let me know when you guys are ready.
I mean, I usually just ask how we protect people dependent on extremely complicated global supply chains to survive for medicine or things like glasses.
Pure anarchy can’t work and is very ablest. Dgmw fuck capitalism
I can’t read all the people who replied to you because my account is having federation issues but I just wanted to say anarchism probably isn’t the thing you think it is. Lot of people get caught up on it as a term synonymous with “chaos and no rules”.
In reality it kind of is the ideal situation for people like me because hierarchical systems tend to let us fall through the floorboards of society at best. But I like that you’re at least thinking in terms of protecting different minds
No but you don’t understand, there would be a person who just likes making eyeglasses who would do it for you!
And if there isn’t one in your commune, or there is one, but they’re mad at you? Tough shit I guess. Try not pissing people off next time.
I really don’t understand where the idea that anarchism = no trade came from
Are you taking the piss? I would expect everyone on a sub this niche would know global trade is possible without direct control.
How could it possibly happen without the invisible hand of capitalism! /s
I really wish people would start marking sarcasm more better - myself included lol.
Anarchism is when nobody does anything because there’s no profit motive and also we hate people with disabilities I guess.
Are you serious?
No I am not!
It can with small communities a la Hunger Games minus the killing of children and a central authority.
Saving this meme, even though anarchy fails to financially reward people for memes.
The meme should be its own reward!
The world is complex and multifaceted. We can’t even understand or describe reality in its fullest. Everyone including myself are just operating on an extremely small and reductive version of what we think the world is.
Conservatives used to make this argument about any policies they don’t like and oddly not make the argument for policies they do like.
You can just say “I’m solving more problems than you” and watch them get on the defense
Pretty much how religion works. Oh you don’t have 4k video and a by the nano second description of the big bang? It’s clearly in my magical book, a fictional being that has zero actual basis in reality made it. Much more plausible.
We’d already have a revolution by now if the time anarchists and MLs spend strawmanning each other was put to good use
Pretty sure that people who do debate theatrics on the internet just aren’t people who would ever step up irl. That’s why the beef happens here, it’s to relieve a certain anxiety
And of course you’ll drop every single thing giving issues in the current system.
Anarchism needs a better state department to push PR about how it would work /s
We should start a committee.
I just say I’m a nihilist and then watch their head explode.
Nihilists? Fuck me. Say what you will about the tenets of national socialism, Dude, at least it’s an ethos.
Man is here to steal our rugs.
Curious!
Anarchists describe their ideal society by pointing to the most crime infested, violent, run down places and saying I’ll be part of the gang that stomps on everyone.
Who said that? That’s like the opposite of the reading I’ve done, which describes networks of mutual cooperation.
Gangs are mutual cooperation

Strawman? That guy’s there to keep the crows off the plants…
Am I to understand you’ve never seen or heard of someone acting like that in real life? It seems like plenty of other people have. I know I have.

Anarchist is a braindead way of thinking. Systems need to be n place for organization and allocation. You think those tribal societies didn’t have systems?
We are anti-authority, not anti-organisation ._.
And who is gonna be the authority to organize everything?
You do not need an authority figure to organise stuff. We use the consensus model for decision making.
Scope out this dude’s comments. He won’t be reading any of that
welp, i tried 🤷
I never blame anyone for opening up to others in good faith. You’re part of why this site doesn’t suck
who decides if there is an issue and who presents it to who?
Anyone can bring up a issue forward to the group
how?
We need to renegotiate prices on lithium with China. How do I do that?
Who is “we” in this situation? Is it a post revolution United States? Is it a hypothetical island? Is this anarcho-syndicist, mutualist, collectivist, etc? There’s more than one school of thought for anarchism
Why are we negotiating money in a moneyless society?
I dunno, am not an economist 🤷
↑↑↑
actually a good question. From my understanding it’s the wronged party and they present it to their local community. Or you advocate for people who are being overlooked.
The model is for smaller communities so that if justice is done poorly then people interjecting can correct it
And whose the guy put all these rules and systems in place?
The collective will decide how to run things
Can you point to 1 example of this working?
This is how we organized for most of our existence
Who is the authority that controls the network your bittorrent client uses? Who is the authority that forces you to share? Who is the authority that keeps bad actors from ruining it for everyone else? There isn’t one. Authority and violence are not the only models for providing systems. The fact that you can’t even conceive of consentual systems is kind of scary, like there’s an important piece of your mind missing.
I feel bad for you, you don’t know how to admit your wrong. There are people that manage which code gets in there and doesn’t. The fact you can’t admit that is sad. Gl in life fr
You don’t know how to think do you? Bittorrent is a hub created and maintained by someone. Just like lemmy has mods. Please really think before speak.
No, it’s a peer-to-peer protocol that does not depend on a “hub” or central server. Like, very famously. Trackers exist to facilitate peer discovery, but the protocol allows clients to discover each other through DHT, “distributed lookup network,” with no central server. Maybe you’re too young to remember gnutella but BitTorrent was created to be invulnerable to disruption by doing away with all central servers. Fucking ask an AI before you start insulting people’s intelligence, you don’t know what you’re talking about.
What about tor? What about i2p? What about gnutella? What about mojonation? What about the federation of Lemmy servers, who is in charge of that? What about FreeNet? What about Bitcoin? What about Ethereum? Bro, do you even code???
Finding your thesis convincing requires you to be utterly ignorant of the world you are living in, blinded by your own baggage and bullshit and too cowardly to be curious.
I don’t need to code, who is the authority that codes that hub? Who updates it maintains it please use your brain
Do you actually want to learn or are you just trying to be a shitty little debate boy?
Nah you’re just not very smart, no authority to manage very thing is actually copium.
“No authority to manage very thing is actually copium”
Lol 📸
This troglodyte needs hierarchy to feel ok and can’t imagine functioning without it. Not everyone can imagine a future they’ve never experienced. Many people were never taught critical thought and logic and your neural centers atrophy with disuse. It’s not their fault and we need to figure out how to deal with them before revolution and then care for them after.
That’s the problem with the ignorant and critically stupid; they think they know things they have no reasonable way of knowing. Case in point…
Go put a sticker on your car, little buddy.
Nah your the type of moron that doesn’t like science
You might want to read up on what Anarchism actually is, since you seem to be pretty unaware: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anarchism.
