I understand that disentangling from what is, can have unintended consequences to those dependent on what is and should be considered. My very elderly mother is on social security. I understand that crony capitalists need reining in.

Do you understand crony capitalists are not the same as free market advocates?

I understand most billionaires got to be billionaires by unjust means.

Do you understand that adopting crony capitalist unjust means and hoping to ignore it will NOT put you on some kind of higher moral ground?

Anyhow, you never answered my question or pointed me to where you did if I may
have missed it.

But again!!??
...I am increasingly leaning towards the amphetamine theory...

(...)
"It none of my business to dictate a master plan, nor should it be."
Ha, that's the best part... It sounds like: "I have no fucking idea how to achieve that world of "totally free individuals in a free capitalism to infinity and beyond"; but I don't care either, because what I do know is that I want to destroy the Welfare State."
So, in the end it is only about the same thing:
Ultra-neoliberalism trying to privatize and make a business out of the last public services that can remain in the hands of the State (which in democracy and the more democracy, is more and more of the society aka people).
Continue stealing from contributing workers to give to the rich, and in the process get rid of the poor who do not contribute and have very little capacity to consume capitalist goods (although the ultra-neoliberal Reagan administration previously exploited that very little economic capacity by offering them crack at "irresistible" prices), with the excuse that they also "enjoy" public rights.

That, plus the probable social crime that means letting even more people die who cannot pay for their cancer treatment, their transplant, etc., because they cannot pay the millionaire rates of the companies of your "friends", the "free and unlimited capitalists."

Your "Totally Free Capitalism VS Crony Capitalism" is nothing more than the old Marxist-Leninist differentiation of "Ultra-free Capitalism VS Capitalism tending towards corporatism/monopolies/imperialism"... And it is the first, your sacrosanct ultra-free capitalism, which is behind and is self-interestedly directed towards the second, which is nothing more than a way of being able to develop and grow, of the first
(in Marxist language: "Crony-corporatist-monopolist-imperialist Capitalism" is only a superstructure of Ultra-Free Capitalism.")

...Hey, Captain: You wouldn't exchange a kilo of that meta for me for some private Class Consciousness classes, would you?
Joking, only...

I don't fit neatly in one of the boxes below, I'm not an Anarcho-Capitalist nor am I an
Anarcho-Communist.

I am a peaceful self-owning individual. If you don't know what a Voluntaryist Panarchist is, that's okay. I forgive you.

Are you an Anarcho-Communist? What are your thoughts on the anarchist descriptions below?

 

[Eltitoguay]

My dear intelligent friend, I post these ideas mostly to promote thought/contemplation, however I have seen [been in] such communities; small mind you and composed of mostly indigenous people. There, value was found or obvious within each member. Someone unable or unwilling to carry out physical tasks may be in demand for coming up with solutions for problems or interpreting what nature is saying or for entertaining [the children], etc. In this way everyone had the same value, even up to the chief or doctor at the clinic.

In times gone, this would have held the economic system. Despite this, there would still be need for enforced strictures such as exist in many communities, like equal access to produce or services.

I realize that to apply this to our current societal structure would be almost impossible as would Red Eye's concepts. I can see his points and can almost see how an evolution to something similar could take place but not without those bothersome strictures creating/retaining a somewhat even playing field of access. [and] As I've mentioned, lobbying and bribery of government would need restrictive enforcement along with the usual murder, rape, theft, assault, etc.

Capitalist socialism?

Thanks for the smart thing (my grandmother also called me that when I asked her if I was handsome, haha). I'll stick with the friend thing.

Of course, my friend: trying to govern our current world society by the way the last communities of the Paleolithic lived, forgetting about the Neolithic, Industrial, Technological Revolutions... that we have made/gone through, and how they have changed us...
It's like trying a proletarian Marxist revolution, where there are only hunters/gatherers and artisans...

I don't exactly understand your "capitalist socialism"; (State Capitalism?) ...But I'm very afraid of the long and silent hand of the Ch.P.C....

Look, one thing I do know that we need, whether you opt for a capitalist, Marxist socialist, or mixed economic model: More and more democracy.
And not allow the little Democracy we have to degenerate into Demagogy, and from there, into Autocracy.

...As for the elimination of the State, because we have surpassed-transcended it, I don't even dream of its possibility: I have enough with the fascists' return not shoving up our asses all the effort it has cost us to reach a "simple" social-democracy within capitalism...

I hate to interrupt, but when you say you want a democracy, you answered my question. You are okay with using force to get your way.

A democracy necessarily imposes it's will on some people, even if they are disinterested but otherwise peaceful and no threat to anybody. I'm sorry you think violence is the means to use to get to justice. I really am.

You aren't an Anarchist either, I'm sure your grandmother is a nice lady though.

Just so you know, I'm in favor of homeless people homesteading so-called government open land.

This.
If government is of the people for the people by the people, government land is just land waiting to be claimed by a person of the people.

Democracy = tyranny of the majority.

The founders knew this, hence the constitution.

Yes. He went thru a ton of mental gymnastics to try to say "democracy" and social justice are linked.

Democracy can just as easily bring tyranny as it can anything else.

...But when I defended the Social State from the beginning, and told you not to use the same criticisms/insults "about communists" with Cannavore as with me, because he was (in my opinion, which may be wrong) much closer to true libertarian anarchism than I (and of course, than you)... wasn't it clear to you??!!

I am a Criminal Communist who killed the Chinese guy in your photos, bombarding them with dangerous and toxic democracy...

But yes: I and my ideology can enter a headquarters of true anarchists, without bloodshed, and talk about Bakunin, Marx, The First International, The Paris Comune, our war together against Mussolini, Hitler and Franco...or about Horizontal Direct Democracy...
Come on, I, being from the Democratically Revolutionary and Pragmatically Utopian Humanist Marxist Socialist Party...I am more anarchist than you (no hard feelings)...and even Proudhon knows that...



...If you go, better leave your ideology at home or on mute... They don't argue with Capitalism; they fight it.
Believe me, there is no superpower, neither capitalist nor Marxist, that can withstand the wrath of the grandchildren of the Durruti Column... Here, not even Franco, Hitler and Stalin together, who surely were light years ahead of your, according to yourself, "Pan/pseudo-anarcho-capitalist superpowers", could barely handle them...

But now seriously talkin', Captain:
I think our socio-political-economic debate is deviating too much from the original spirit of the thread.

Postcript note, by

"...Certainly, horizontalism and anarchism coincide in their advocacy of federal, directly democratic, action-oriented, autonomous organization..."

A democracy is not anarchy though, since a democracy is a ruler of many and anarchy means, "no rulers".


The original etymology of the word anarchy.
An - "without" Archon - "ruler". That meaning far predates your 1800s commie friends like Karl Marx,

You are Not an Anarchist if you use a democracy to rule over a disinterested but otherwise peaceful person(s).

The purpose of this thread seemed to be celebrating Luigi killing a man. I don't usually celebrate murder, even while recognizing that crony capitalism is bad.

You also failed to differentiate my view from a crony capitalists view and don't really know what an actual free market is. You made a claim that honoring a free market which relies on consent would lead to a crony capitalist market which relies on removal of consent. Those are two opposing concepts.
Also just because I know what went on in Grafton, doesn't mean I agreed with all of it, which you kind of assigned to me without asking what my position actually is. I'm sure you have a nice Grandmother though.

Try to be more peaceful.
