Anarchism never lasts long
im actually reading about anarchism
What book?
I copped a Political Theory Encyclopedia from my college's library
Political Theory - For Students
Gale Group/ Thompson Learning
its alright, nothing mindblowing
but a bunch of degenerates from the northeast in the 1870s made anarchist communes
that dissolved after a short time
and guess who did it?
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Some cunty feminists
a lot of Trancendentalist Writers
i didnt know transcendentalism was so degenerate
If the unabomber was to live in the 1870s, he would have fit right into the commune
also the People vs OJ Simpson tier courtcase in the first half of the 1900's
had to do with two anarchist on trial 4 murder
fucking anarchists
my most recent test results
they sentenced them 2 death kek
and executed them
that rope was invented to exclusively noose anarchists?
its true

What about all the self reliance shit?
it failed tho
so it probably redpilled him
Ah, i see. So it was before his based writing?
im not sure actually
The community was short-lived and lasted only seven months. It was dependent on farming, which turned out to be too difficult. The original farmhouse, along with other historic buildings from the area, is now a part of Fruitlands Museum.

The biggest challenge at Fruitlands was farming. The community had arrived at the farm a month behind the planting schedule and only about 11 acres (4.5 ha) of land were arable.[10] The decision not to use animal labor on the farm proved to be the undoing of the commune, combined with the fact that many of the men of the commune spent their days teaching or philosophizing instead of working in the field. Using only their own hands, the Fruitlands residents were incapable of growing a sufficient amount of food to get them through the winter.
Fruitlands was also hampered by its structure. Alcott and Lane wielded nearly limitless authority and dictated very strict and repressive models for living. "I am prone to indulge in an occasional hilarity", wrote Alcott's wife Abby May, "but seem frowned down into still quiet and peace-less order... [and] am almost suffocated in this atmosphere of restriction and form".[24] The Fruitlands experiment ended only seven months after it began. According to Bronson Alcott, the inhabitants left Fruitlands in January 1844; his daughter, Louisa May, wrote that they left in December 1843, which is considered to be the more accurate date.[25] Alcott was deeply dismayed by the failure of Fruitlands and, moving with his family to live with a nearby farmer, refused to eat for several days. Later, Ralph Waldo Emerson helped purchase a home for the family in Concord.[26]
Fruitlands had only a brief opportunity to impact America and the Transcendentalist movement. After it had ended, the land was bought by one of its former participants, Joseph Palmer, who for 20 years used the site as a refuge for former reformers.[27] The property was purchased in 1910 by Clara Endicott Sears, who opened the farmhouse to the public in 1914 as a museum.[28] Today, the Fruitlands Museum also includes a museum on Shaker life, an art gallery of nineteenth-century paintings, and a museum of Native American art and crafts.[28]
