"Stand your ground. Don't fire unless fired upon, but if they mean to have a war, let it begin here."
-Captain John Parker, April 19, 1775, Lexington, MA
They're authoritarian followers trying to do the same thing Trump is doing now. They wanted to overturn the results of the election to keep him in power.
Then there's no reason to categorize the actions of the current regime as anarchist. They're doing the opposite. Fascism is concerned with consolidating power, not distributing it. No one in government is currently trying to make power structures more horizontal than the Constitution prescribes
You can counter the Constitution without advancing the cause of anarchism
A president consolidating power and eliminating the rule of law to assert his own authority is the opposite of anarchism.
What's racist about thinking a particular practice is immoral, regardless of who practices it?
Form a line.
Anarchism isn't chaos. It's simply the lack of hierarchical power structures. Most of your interactions with others are anarchic. You try to be good to those around you because it's right, not because someone will be violent towards you if you don't.
Post a ship that's not Star Wars or Star Trek
"No orthodoxy" is orthodoxy
Weird way to spell McMahan and Newsome, but ok
Anarchist in the streets, strict authoritarian in the sheets
Democratically elected?
You get that 75% of wealth is inherited, right?
Honestly, I think you're too far gone. I'm not wasting anymore time in someone so brainwashed. I hope someone gets something useful out of reading this, but I'm convinced that won't be you. Enjoy the last word if you like
The owners literally dictate to the workers how to operate.
Name one society of a million or more people that abolished the State but kept corporations that resulted in greater equality. You can't! They don't exist!
You accept dictatorships without the level of evidence you require for actual anarchism
I don't argue with "common logic." It seems distinct from logic in general. You've already demonstrated why anarcho-capitalism is a contradiction in terms and conceded that capitalist enterprises are dictatorships. All anyone needs to understand is "dictatorships bad"
What do you even base that on? Am I just arguing with your gut feels right now? Because claims made without evidence are worthless.
So societies are corporations now? These comments are entirely disjointed. Throwing out random challenge questions entirely unrelated to whether a dictatorship of capital is justified doesn't get us any closer to answering that question.
You understand that there are already worker co-ops without that level of hierarchy, right? So it logically can't be the minimum.
I also don't know how to determine "deserve" in this case without already accepting capitalist realism. I'm sure people said the same nonsense about feudal lords.
I don't think DS9 was a procedural. There were only a few episodes that followed that genre. But I do want a specific police procedural, and that's Pog & Dar: Cop Landlords
Capitalism ≠ markets. Markets existed before capitalism and will likely exist in some form once capitalism is gone. Capitalism is specifically control of the means of production by an owner class that dictates to workers how to operate. They're tiny dictatorships, and incompatible with anarchism
Much better than "trees bleed, tho"
You're just describing prefiguration. Very common in current anarchist thinking
Why are we restricted to those regions when there's no ML social structure there?
Even with that restriction, the CNT
Ok, what sorts of social structures count? What does it mean to withstand capitalist aggression? I think there are several examples that meet these criteria
Obvious misinterpretations are obvious
You know what it would take to get an answer, yet you won't do it. Seems like you don't actually want one
