Just abolish states entirely, its much easier
Mr. Genie? Yeah, this guy right here.
Yay, I can be bullied by the local idiots instead of idiots abroad.
No, you can have a horizontal structure that doesn't give anyone power over you and meets your needs.
And who keeps the warlords at bay?
If literally everyone's needs are met, why would anyone side with a warlord?
Hmm I can participate in society with basically zero obligations other than "mind my own business", or I can give up all my power to a strongman.
Obviously communes are able to defend themselves, I don't know why you seem to think they wouldn't.
Go read some theory and get back to me. Theanarchistlibrary.org is right there
Im not looking for a fight, so no worries.
I feel like its really easy to poke holes in anarchy but maybe we should just try to be good people so that the state is rendered useless.
Because everyone's needs being met =/= everyone's desires being met.
Why not?
We've already established community self defense to deter would-be warlords. Your life, yes yours idgaf who you are, would be better under anarchism.
Right... community self defense magically makes fighting and assaults disappear... You live in lala land. No wonder you're telling us to read theory, because that's the only place such childish, underdeveloped concepts can survive.
(btw, I do like the concept of anarchy, I'm just not so foolish as to think there are zero evil or childish people in the real world)
People have wants more than needs when needs are largely met. You are imagining a humanity that simply does not exist.
Again, how are you going to deal with a band of assholes that want to TAKE from you?
Authoritarians create crisis then claim power. It doesnt matter if everyone's needs are being met. They will create chaos and then become the savior, being, "the only one who can fix it" ignoring the fact they created the problem in the first place.
Lol good luck with that
That would take a genie to accomplish. Or a few...
You cannot simply leapfrog to communism unless you want to end up like every "communist" country that has existed... As in, not what you want at all in most ways.
