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 any way.

And who keeps the warlords at bay?
A_Union_of_Kobolds@lemmy.world 2 days ago
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.

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.
A_Union_of_Kobolds@lemmy.world 2 days ago
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.

People have wants more than needs.
Again, how are you going to deal with a bnad 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.
