Schmoo@slrpnk.net 19 hours agoAside from being reductive, yes, I’m an anarchist. I’m not opposed to writing down some rules, but I am opposed to the coercive use of force to impose them on others. It is possible to organize a system of preventative and restorative justice without the use of a hierarchy.

Anarchism is probably the most naive of all the available systems. It’s like it’s been designed by someone who’s never met any other human being outside of a very small, and very tight friends circle.
You have it backwards. We didn’t invent civilisation and then the ruling class decided to oppress the working class by inventing laws. We had an honour system, but because people are greedy cunts, we had to gradually replace it with a law system. And because people are greedy cunts, many of them being plain evil, we had to add an enforcement system (which used to be angry mobs).
Like, what do you think religions are? These are early, pre-“formal law” attempts at ensuring people behave according to rules, allowing for the growth of the community.
Think about it - you’re complaining that the enforcement of law is not equal for everybody, meaning that some individuals are effectively exempt from being affected by law, and you know that the 1% on the top are practically all in that group, you can clearly see how this 1% is fucking over the entire world… all of which you conclude by saying “there should be no laws for nobody”… Make it make sense.
