Dang, #TonightWeRiot seems like a fun game, and I did download it, but I'm not sure I'll play it.
I watched a few minutes of gameplay, and it's a brawler where you don't control a single character, but an entire enraged mob. At the end of each level, you're judged by how many people in your mob managed to survive.
I like fantasising about violently taking down #capitalism as much as anyone else, but I'm not sure I'm ready to include the deaths of comrades in that fantasy.
Also, fantasising about a worker's revolution is fun, but I have no frame of reference to imagine what happens after the revolution. Every time one of these revolutions "succeeds", after much violence and bloodshed, all that happens is you replace one tyrant with another.
Seems like a fundamental human sociological impulse to look for a leader, whether popularly or self-appointed, and that new leader just repeats the greedy cycle of societal abuse.
The only society I know about that has come closest to functioning in anarchy is the Spanish anarchists, and that was small and short-lived. Maybe 6000 people in the Durruti column? For a couple of years?
Once a society gets slightly large, anarchism falls apart. 😞
