đť—– đť—” đť—§@jpaskaruk The "Anarchist" that you talked to was wrong and horribly misinformed. Anarchism is the absence of hierarchy and authority, NOT the absence of order and structure. Order and structure are necessary for any society to function. Without order and structure, without all of society being united under a shared ideological platform, an Anarchist society would become weak and be taken over by authoritarianism.
Neorat™ Ad #FuckYourZionistEthnostate@Radical_EgoCom To be fair, since Anarchism is very individualist there is no unified "anarchist viewpoint". He wasn't misinformed or wrong, just didn't go with the usual idea of anarchist society. @jpaskaruk
@jpaskaruk I mean, we have seen and still can see anarchist ideals in practice. Zapatists, Zomians, Kurdish revolutionaries to name a few. The hierarchical, cutthroat order we devolved into is the primary reason we're so barbaric. Because the people allowed to grab power will never give it back. For me, anarchism is the absence of said power and system allowing power hungry megalomaniacs to enforce their will upon others.

JimmyChezPants 🇨🇦Devolved? From what just world order did this devolution happen?
My conception of humanity is that we start barbaric, and slowly self-organize, over many thousands of years. Stories of a past that was not nasty and brutish are religion to me.

@jpaskaruk @szczur @Radical_EgoCom Stories of a past that was not nasty and brutish are literal archeology. The "nasty and brutish" story was made up of whole cloth by Thomas Hobbes to support the emerging world dominance of capital. It's not based on anything factual, it's a religious dogma of the capitalist world-system. David Graeber and David Wengrow make this argument in painstaking detail in The Dawn of Everything.
