Never go full Taliban.

Except financial harm. Oh and getting people addicted to pain killers. And over prescribing antibiotics. And…

Just gonna wait for the “Well actually…!” posts 🍿

Absolutely. The only time I see an issue with this is when someone only spams “America bad”. Yes, the government is bad, but that ignores a lot of the nuance of the situation. Similarly, people who only want to talk about how China, Russia, other colonizing power, etc is bad and refuse to understand that it isn’t the people of those places as a whole.

Easy, Andorra. Do Europeans not play with Seterra?

The same people would operate a hospital. There are already anarchists from every walk of life, so in a hypothetical post capitalist society they could continue to work together in a hospital.

As I have put forward in other comments, anarchism does not spring up overnight. It would take years of work to get to (if it ever does). They main thing is that we take responsibility for ourselves and work together in a system of mutual aid.

This all will look different in each community. In communities that are able to grow larger with many people, there will be larger hospitals with more specialized departments. In smaller communities, there may not be a hospital or it may have limited services. But that is already the case in our current system. The major difference is that people will not have to second guess going in for care for fear that they cannot afford it.

There are many obstacles to a truely anarchist society. But that doesn’t mean that we can’t work towards one. People do not lose the desire to care for others, to research, or to organize because they don’t have a government.

If you are interested in learning more, I suggest looking at the Zapatista movement in Mexico. They have built multiple hospitals and clinics since they took the region. Again, this will look different in each area as anarchism is not a one size fits all approach.

The true answer is “it depends”. Each community may be slightly different.

The main thing is that there is no state that holds a monopoly on power. This reenforces the idea that anarchism probably won’t come about from a quick revolution. It needs to be built over time and with trust and the understanding that we must work together.

An answer would be that the community uses some combination of restorative justice, therapy, arbitration, or in the worst cases exile or violence towards the offender.

It would be worth reading more about criminal justice on theanarchistlibrary.org.

Of course you can. Anarchism is not (but can be) a pacifist ideology. However, the idea is to build up strong communities and relationships with those around you. I certainly would not sit by idly if someone came to hurt me, my loved ones, etc. An anarchist society would look to extend those bonds to those you live with/ near and associate with.

Anarchism can work (it is working everyday currently). It just does not look the same everywhere. The idea would be for many communities to build strong mutual aid such that they don’t need to rely on an oligarch. We need to move away from capitalism and form communities that can associate with each other and help one another. It isn’t so much of a one time revolution, but a process that needs to be worked towards over time.

No relation

Like he would even pay attention to it 🙄

Hold up. They only have more lakes because they count ponds. A lake in Minnesota is “a body of water greater than 10 acres”. Wisconsin does not have a standard.

Yeah, I’d love to see a write up on this to follow.Sounds like useful practice in the lab if nothing else.

I also have brontosaurus as my favorite (probably also because of The Land Before Time).

Glad you’re still holding out hope for Pluto too!

Congrats! I’m now off to checkout bookwyrm because I haven’t seen that before.

That’s not fair. They also really care about getting rid of age of consent laws!

I think it is implying that feminist women will not take part in fighting. Women are already in combat roles within the armed forces in the US, though.

They had a pretty big W in 1975

This is exactly why the Black Panthers were formed. And they worked. So well that the government took them down.

I think I’ll be ok.
