    Look I’m not saying we have to switch to a total lack of hierarchy immediately. I just want us to start at the top and eat our way down and see how that affects things.

      (Researchers going over ancient Internet history): Wow there must have been some SERIOUS food crisis going on from 2000-20xx! There’s so much talk about cannibalism and guillotines!

    On Lemmy, it’s more like “oh you’re an anarchist? You obviously haven’t read enough Lennin”

      I’m entering my years as a senior anarchist, and I always find it funny when some in their 20’s who got their entire personality from a podcast tells me to read to read On Authority or State and Revolution or something. My dude, I actually read people I disagree with, do you? Because only someone that doesn’t would think those are profound criticisms.

        You’re just creating this strawman because you disagree with the other side that is recommending you read about their beliefs, despite claiming that you read people you disagree with

              It’s does because they are very basic criticisms to the point of being kind of insulting. It’s a akin to asking someone with clinical depression if they have tried vitamin d supplements. The suggestion itself demonstrates their own cluelessness.

        Same here, these people constantly complaining about “tankies” seem to vastly outnumber the alleged tankies in my experience

          Isn’t it the opposite here. Idk if when they say tankie they mean leftist hexbear users or maga type right wing people. That’s not trying to insult hexbear. I literally don’t know.

          I get called a tankie or centrist here compared to reddit where only a few times I was called a centrist.

    This meme applies to any ideology sufficiently removed from the current state of things. Ideologies are fun, but conversations that ignore how much work is required to transition get boring after a while.

    Which is why I think slowly eating our way down from the top is far more interesting and safe proposal than any pure ideology.

    Pretty sure eating billionaires and pumping their Ill gotten gains into systems that help humanity would fix most issues. Kill off any greedy fucks

    It doesn’t have to solve every problem, but it does have to result in a better world than we have now, which it won’t.
