What if instead we totally alienated a bunch of the worst people to ever exist from any consequence, built society on appeasing them at any cost, and then murdered everyone who wanted anything else,though?

I personally think thats a much better idea, and will murder you if you dont agree.

I mean, there's an argument for lottery representation to centralize enough power (government) to stomp any other spikes of power (corporations)

Yeah, but humans like efficiency and delegation, so eventually that power coagulates

Isn't it Athens version of Denocracy rather? Everyone gets a vote and all that?

Green on the topic of anarchy I shall add xD

We are being ruled over by power addicts

Its just perfectly normal healthy paranoid pedophilic blood cults with measurably less of several kinds if intelligence than baseline. I dont see why you have tocall them mentally ill.

Well, there might need to be an equal and opposite reaction in order to keep it in check. If some people are just inherently evil and desire power over others, then I imagine there would also be inherently good people and desire to protect others.

I don't think you can "prevent" this outright. That's why there's talk of "vigilance" and being "watchful" when it comes to government/democracy.

Establish customs and structures that prevent power. It needs vigilance. There's evidence that before agriculture some humans exhibited "reverse dominance hierarchy," where if someone tried to assert dominance, the group would team up and ostracise, exile, or execute them.

"people that want power will find ways to get power"nah. probably not.

People arent born seeking power. That is an idea they get at a certain point. Why? Can we not nuture people away from this path?

An active community of hunters, trained to recognize and hunt down such menaces.

Shunning, exile, and other more usual ordinary consequences.

Abolish the concept of power

anarchism doesn't mean you can't get organised.

that said, it's pretty damned hard to defend against an attacking nation, if you don't have taxpayer funded hierachical military. hard doesn't mean impossible tho

Yep, I believe the absolute majority of people in power are evil because evil people seek power.

No you dont undersrand! Everything i want is made of basement kids and if i dont get it ill be sad, but if i think about making it happen ill be sad.

So i need to make sure we all just agree that dping wjat the worst monsters we can find tell us to and and killing anyone who disagrees. You disagreeing makes me feel bad.

Its the fear of the unknown. I had to deal with that too when I first learned about anarchism.

A quote from Dune if I recall correctly is power attracts the corruptable, not exactly that it corrupts. So not that humans are evil but we offer positions that shouldn't be given to anyone that wants it. Mean okay I'm sure there's good people that try for elected positions for sure.

Also quote from hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy, no one that seeks power should be given it. Or similar was in reference to who they elect president.

While hitchhiker's guide is comedy I think it holds well, people who seek power want to abuse it. People resultant to accept a position may be better to administer. I think, while quite different moods in their texts, they were saying the same thing. One (quite boring and dry, no pun intended, at first read) another just silly with some commentary on life.

Funny how that works cause you'd think democracy would weed others out. But gestures to democracies these days we see how things work with media manipulation. I think the hitchhiker's guide worked and well was made due to the education of the author.

So why the eff aren't we supporting system where we can cultivate ideas to improve ourselves rather than hearing media tell us not to like someone who is probably cool anyways?

Yes a north american view but right wing has been spreading and all.

Thats why no man should have power over others.

If we’re just making shit up then god says I’m in charge.

Not only them but also the journalists they paid so we have 2 independent sources

Sound like you're on the side of that. Good show, indeed.

There's a recent song from Linkin Park about that guy. I think they're right and that he's not ackt-choo-choo-ally anarchic.

I mean, logic does that better butt...
