Can’t I just show them a picture of my loving wife and kids that I’ll go home to after this one last adventure?

… yes… Sure you can…

You’ll be fine in this situation, as long as you take these precautions:

Have a little child at home. Teach them about being responsible with power and give them a little trinket. It’s vital that it’s a slesson of being responsible that can bring you back from some kind of evil corruption. If it’s about “believing in yourself”, your death will be the thing that’s driving the plot, instead of a redemtion arc. You want to prepare for the redemption storyline.

I asked you what the anarchist solution is.

“The anarchist answer”™️ probably looks like a militia of delegates, woven into a process of restorative justice.

without telling me what the correct one would be in these contexts or telling me literally anything about anarchy.

That’s not true. I shared an article explaining why your definition doesn’t fit what we’re talking about.

Oh and linked a paper

It’s an essay.

where a person says they don’t believe children should be required to go to school and that Industrial civilization is simply unfit to nurture human life

Called it!

School is an institution that was introduced to prepare the children of the proletariat to work in industry. That’s why going to school is mandatory in (most) capitalist countries.

You better read up on what havoc industrialization wreaked on family condition. The natural urge of children to play and learn being surpressed in order to prepare them for capitalistic exploitation and sort them into the financial caste they’re supposed to be in is something you condone?

I didn’t answer, because the question didn’t make any sense.

you don’t think industrialized civilization should exist?

Another term that you’re probably misunderstanding in bad faith.

But anarchists oppose authority. In an anarchist utopia, there is no authority. Here’s an explanation of the distinctions anarchists make

You’re (deliberately?) bendng the definition of aufthority in order to score a point. You know that what you describe doesn’t fit the anarchist critique of “authority”.

But why did you bring up the other thing?

Those three were all Russian Anarchists from 100+ years ago. From left to right:

• Peter Kropotkin. He’s mostly known for applying scientific observations in nature about species cooperating and historical research to reach a political program of anarcho-communism. He actually expanded on Darwin, while others perverted his ideas into social Darwinism.
• Emma Goldman. One of the first prominent female anarchists. She emigrated to the US, but I have to admit that I don’t know too much about her, other than she was rad as fuck.
• Mikhail Bakunin. He was the most prominent figure of the anti-authoritarian first international. He is usually known to be the first, “proper” modern anarchist, since he did some much needed development of Proudhon.

All three of them were anarchists and therefore aginst liberal democracy.

Yaaay! 🍞

What about Bread Santa?

Edit: thx!

Und selbst wenn die Atomwaffen gebaut hätten: Der Iran versteht MAD auch und versteht genauso, dass Israel bereit ist, die ganze Region in rapioaktive Schutt und Asche zu verwandeln, wenn sie mit Atomwaffen angegriffen würden. Stichwort: Samson Option

Es ist definitiv nicht das erste, was ich nach Beginn des Krieges von der SPD lesen sollte. Was die Union veranstaltet ist ja schon widerlich genug.

Yo, the only reason Hitler is considered right-wing, because he wanted to lead the German nation to prosperity. Stop purity-testing!

/s (in case it’s not obvious)

Genocide Joe still was a right-wing politician. With his hwole political legacy.

… wait a second… you think Trump became president, because of leftists not con&idering the Dems anything but right wing? Lol.

Idk. Simping for a fascist ethnostate sure doesn’t seem left to me.

… and it’s just a meme, homie.

First of all: kudos to you for still not having given up talking to that guy. I think I can imagine that frustration.

Maybe, instead of pointing out the contradiction, you can try to make him realize how the lack of due process, locking up protestors and keeping groups of people out of leadership positions will hurt him in the end.

How does it invalidate the things you agree on? Or does it make you not want to talk to him nnymore?

Because you can explain why sexism/racism/whatever is counterproductive on a tactical/logical level without bringing morals into the mix.

Neue Spiele sind eh doof. Hab neulich Teufel darf weinen 5 wieder zurückgegeben, weil es im Jahre unseres Herren 2019 zu viel verlangt war, dass man Zwischensequenzen dieses Spiels pausieren kann. 🙄

Lieber die Wii-Version von Pikmin mit Bewegungssteuerung auf dem Steam-Deck mit Delphin. Richtig tolles Retro-Nintendospiel (und nicht das 1000ste mal Zelda… das kam vorher im PC-Port mit HD-Texturen und moderner Steuerung…)
