Ancaps Dont oppose liberal democracy lmao

Freer than democracy? Like what

You can democracy in an anarchist system tho

Anarchism is the removal of unfair hierarchies

You can have demonstrated there

Anarchism isn't simply "anarchy, do what you want"

There are ways to prevent that

Hell, even in "anarchism" the majority has more power of the minority

In the grand scheme of things "shouldn't " means nothing

Better than the alternative

Democracy aint great but its the best we've got

Its the best option

Anarchism still needs democracy

So then how are the big decisions made?

Sadly it doesn't work like that

When you say minarchism you are referring to a night watchman state yes?

In a nigh watchman state, there are still laws yes?

Because there needs to be a general rule of what is right and wrong

Such as : murder bad

But who decides what is included?

Say i wanna smoke in public

Should that be allowed?

If im in a crowded room, that smoke can harm others

But its my right to smoke isn't it?

I'm interested to hear your opinion

Hence why checks and balances exist
It isn't perfect but its the best option

I'm libertarian but at the same time I understand that certain things are not possible in the current world situation so I realize some things will need compromising on

Right libertarian specifically

I had a stint with anarchism

Ye thats the issue for me

It sounds great

And I'd love to see it work

I dont see it working, especially in this modern world

Ye that's another issue

Anarchism i cant see working on a large scale, either left or right

I've dipped into liberalism, conservatism, social democracy
They all have pros and cons but there's no one perfect way

You need to pick and choose what works from each

Damn, am i a centrist ๐Ÿ˜”

I just don't want to risk it

If it wont work in theory, its hard to see things working in practice
Hence why I don't support anarchism

Well of course
Everyone has commonality with other ideologies

And thats where compromise comes in

I also really hate the political compass
Idk if anyone else feels the same

It simplifies things too much

9vals is way better and even then it isn't great

Stand by anyone who supports whatever it is you're pushing for at the time

The compass imo has simplified politics to the point where people don't understand what ideologies are really about

I understand bernie supporters and i feel many have good intentions at heart, I just dont agree with their policies

Same with bernie
He seems a swell guy with a good heart but I disagree with most of his policies

Ye this
Capitalism isn't perfect but it works
Some elements need fixing but the core is good
