@glightly@mastodon.social unfortunately $ rules and the hesitance to tackle this issue for 40 years is because it cost too much for our economic system to handle says the wealthy. How much is it costing us now? And I wonder if the wealthy took the last 40 years to store up enough nuts to weather it versus average people who will take the brunt of it? 🤔

@Beckysay where are you headed?

@HeavenlyPossum@kolektiva.social @mloxton @RD4Anarchy@kolektiva.social I’m just looking to have civil conversations. I’m open minded about anarchy, but have difficulty seeing a path to it without a total breakdown and maybe that’s where we’re headed. It has been an energized discussion, but you’re always going to run into people who resist the idea of anarchy as being superior. If we are to make it into the future, especially off the planet. We need to get ourselves organized.

Too everyone- I’m getting fatigued with the conversation, everyone has stated their positions without agreement. I’ll agree to disagree. For all of the pro-anarchy arguments, you don’t have a single example of a large a modern anarchist society, and you’ve not proven it is superior from a lesser violence standpoint, and finally it is no where adequate to navigate the Great Filter which requires broad cooperation. My experience is that just won’t happen.

@HeavenlyPossum@kolektiva.social @mloxton Those groups organized into settlements, and then settlements aligned with each other, and the next thing you know States and Countries, all for security. :)

@HeavenlyPossum@kolektiva.social @mloxton Yes mass violence, agreed commited by people. Questions? 😉 Still looking for the reason why anarchy is the silver bullet that counters the violent tendency of human beings. 🤔 I don’t want to hear about the Bronze Age, but today, how it would be implemented. I can actually see a more peaceful, less destructible path towards socialism than towards anarchy.

@HeavenlyPossum@kolektiva.social @mloxton for group security, humans will organize into groups. Arguably warlords gain power by force and they are countered by other groups, a counter force, possibly, ideally democratic. For you, that might be called the state. My guess is you object to states because they scoop up territory, but we used to have territories. And they decided it was in their best interest to become a state, for security. 🤔

@RD4Anarchy@kolektiva.social in a nutshell, Luddites feared technology because of job displacement. Enclosure, I’ll have to look that up to tell you if I’m familiar with it or not.🙂

@mloxton @HeavenlyPossum@kolektiva.social @spoons@kolektiva.social @WolfChristensen@kolektiva.social @foolishowl IMO, whether you have competence and professionalism in your work is a standard separate from a chosen economic or political system. It has to do with safety to yourself and those around you.
