@WolfChristensen@kolektiva.social @spoons@kolektiva.social @mloxton @Radical_EgoCom@kolektiva.social I’m not hostile to your opinion, enjoy the discussion. 🙂 Watch one of many post-apocalyptic stories like The Post Man or the Book of Eli. There maybe great communities, but they will be countered by bad communities, inevitable war lords who seize power, have a large band of militant followers who seek to expand their power and control. What the average citizen gets is pot luck.
@mloxton Cult leaders, glorified dictators. Just picture how the MAGA cult will function if given free reign to shred the Constitution. “All rise and bow for the Emperor and send over you’re oldest daughter to entertain him”…🫣

That was a question 45's election answered for me.
We had a system in which pols on the right were incentivized to claim they would enact some really horrible stuff, but did so in the safety of knowing it would get shot down (which they could then rail against)
I wondered what they would do if they had free reign and do what they actually wanted.
Well, I think we got that one answered - they were pulling us into an authoritarian theocracy that would be fine with slavery
@WolfChristensen@kolektiva.social @spoons@kolektiva.social @mloxton @Radical_EgoCom@kolektiva.social …and PS all the problems will be the same, deciding the best way to solve problems, finding honest leadership, agreement in the community, and generally speaking finding people willing to share, be fair, and not stab you the back. 🤔

Also ... some closer analysis of many of the peace groups in the sixties reveals some pretty harsh bullying, abuse, and rape ... so sure, many peaceful groups may exist, but many of them will be more like abusive families than not.
