      Well, would you mind telling what I should read to understand it better? The first link you send I did read, the second has thousands of files, so I didn’t know where to start.

        All of it. Until you fully comprehend that when everyone’s equipped with anti-oppression tools, nobody can, or should be oppressed.

        @[email protected] ’s meme is neoliberalism at its finest, sending bombs to Gaza, and slavering Africans. What “Freedom” is there, when they oppress other nations, and their civilians, through theft?

          Rhetorics are praxis, yours are shit. Be less angry. Project less of your pain on random passers-by. Assume innocence. If you can’t, work on it until you can. If you don’t understand why that’s the case, why it’s a bad idea to preach from on-high as an Anarchist…

              That is not ignorance. That’ a chance to educate, and you blew it. Did you send them a link to the anarchist library or something and really expect them to read it. At that point you should have been asking what kind of question, aspects, interests them most, and give some pointers.

              Anarchy just shifts the problem from “people with the most money bully the people with less” to “people with the most guns bully the people with less”

              That is not bad faith, but ignorance. Presumably because you failed to give a proper and vulgar definition yourself. Vulgar as in “doesn’t use misleading terms such as ‘state’ which has a completely different meaning in the dictionary than it does in anarchist theory so you should keep it out of first impressions and leave it to the history seminar”.

              Frankly speaking, if you can’t advocate for anarchism without getting the term anarchy or any politics involved, you’re not doing it right. Not that that’s always the best approach, but it is a viable and valuable approach.

              Or do you actually have something to deoppress in Europe that I can help with?

              Why, are we so flawless on the continent that you’re itching for any opportunity, any, to apply your vast skills of deoppression? Go outside. You don’t need me to point out shit, shit should be obvious, question is how to grow flowers on it.

            So, do you read book covers for the pretty fonts, or do read and conceptualize the contents of a news article with a journal to take notes with at the next post?

              I am not trying to be petty or mean, but I honestly don’t understand what you are trying to say.

                Yes. Just like I take my time to read lemmy posts of ignorant statists, I read newer entries in my library.

                Or do you actually keep a record of every arbitrary law and news coming out of NATO Imperialists?

                  Ah okay, impressive. But can you see how it’s a bit much to ask everyone to read all the articles?

                  Anarchy is not the only political ideology, so in theory that would mean that I would need to read all the articles from all those ideologies to make an informed decision.

                  Well, I’ll try to read some of em, can’t promise that I’ll read everything tho.

                    I’m confident a civilian as yourself read every single law you are beholden to, and comply with the arbitrary judgements made in behalf of those laws, that nobody would make a profession out of that simply to exploit your ignorance, no? I simply can’t fathom an entire industry created in the exploitation of ignorantia juris non excusat. Wouldn’t that be, a bit much?

                    Anarchy is not the only political ideology, so in theory that would mean that I would need to read all the articles from all those ideologies to make an informed decision.

                    Sure! That seems absolutely reasonable. How familiar are you with European colonialism, and that of the US?

                    Take your time. I’m sure there are mentors, counselors, and teacher that can help you process centuries of information into condense forms of historical contexts you can summarize details for. There’s even lemmy communities for that too!

      Well, can you point us to an example where anarchy effectively worked? With more than a thousand people?

      It just doesn’t seem to function, and you just don’t want to try to figure out why and fix it.

      That’s the problem IMO with anarchists (like you).

        Sure! Plenty of examples, both alive, and in the past.

        It’s just extremely saddening when statists forgo teaching basic anarchist praxis, and prefer to indoctrinate statist homogeneity.

        Why does oppression function so well then, that freedom means now oppression of others, and you seem content on maintaining that contradiction? Since when was freedom justified in the oppression of others?

        My problem is I don’t like oppression, but you do!
