I’m egalitarian, as in that’s what we need more of. Violence as a starting point isn’t a plan. It’s just somebody who feels the need to mutilate flesh, coming up with some bullshit to justify it. The only exception is a literal fed propagandist astroturfing for violence to undermine any cultural or political actual development.
You’re it a nerd, nor being silly. You’re just hiding behind that now.

Wat?
I’m certainly not as nerdy as I used to be, but I’m more nerdy that the average person. Idk what that really has to do with anything though
Calling you a nerd was just a silly way to express that I think you’re a lame liberal/centrist
I’m not hiding behind anything though. I think violence is necessary. It’s not a starting point- it’s a reaction to the violence that has already been levied against us. The state tries to maintain a monopoly on violence, and I think that’s absurd. Violence is the only thing they understand
As an egalitarian, you must be against the state since the state is hierarchical. We need to build alternatives to the state on the basis of mutual aid with horizontal power structures. This isn’t easy as long as the state has the monopoly of violence and can demolish everything we build. If you have an idea to get rid of the state that doesn’t involve violence, not even in self defense, I’m listening. Until then, self-defense it is.
No one who self diagnosed themself as egalitarian seems to know what that means. It’s a pretty worthless identifier since that’s not even a political structure at all. It’s an economic philosophy. But whatever. Just stay home, okay champ?

I’m amazed if you actually consider that an insult.

Nah I’m being silly, I’m a nerd too. I do think pacifism is lame though- you say “the left”, but you sound like a liberal.

violence is bad, stabbing and cutting someone is bad.
but cutting someone to remove a cancer is good.
