Comment on Anon has a problem with Bioshock
finitebanjo@piefed.world 3 days agoWhat happens when it comes somebody's turn and they decide to stay in charge permanently? Well obviously the loss of the social contract means that individual isn't protected anymore, either, so they kill him. Just like the splicers tried to kill Andrew Ryan.

The same thing that happens anywhere else? A power struggle between the people who want it and don’t? Are you implying this is unique to anarchism in some way? I don’t see why it would be.

A power struggle with no legal recourse except bloodshed is indeed specific to a system where there is no power structure or system of laws, correct. That's what I said. It has never once proven false. And you came in here and demanded I retract my statement? What are you going to do about it, eat my liver?

There is a legal recourse, you’re saying someone with power ignored the law and attempted a coup… do you think coups don’t happen in non anarchist countries? How is this unique to anarchism in any way?

In non anarchist countries they can be arrested and face trial, and there are many barriers in place to prevent them from taking total control in the first place.
In Anarchy it's literally handed to them and the only recourse is to abduct or kill that guy.
That's why nations last hundreds of years and Anarchies last days.
