Hey TMONEY, whats your ideology?

Anarcho libertarian.

Like ANCAP?

Anarchy is inherently libertarian

anarcho capitalism strikes me as an odd philosophy, since it wants to hark back to an imagined time when capitalism was free

but capitalism is capitalism or it is something else

Haven't looked into that so I can't say. But my main stance is that we don't need the current body of government or elected leadership anymore. I’m defining government as a coercive entity that plunders wealth by force, and redistributes it on projects of various kinds, from infrastructure and bribing voters, to war and weapons of mass destruction.  We need to blockchain program the lawmaking system, which could eliminate corruption. Police are needed. Self interest will take care of roads etc. Public ownership pools for roads in neighbourhoods.

in fact the term is a vexed one--what does it refer to anyway?

Anarcho-capitalism is better than capitalism with a state.

Local government can choose between different kinds of police forces instead of being stuck with the default one

People can forge new ones

@Dontkillmyvibe the coercive force of the government is decided by the social contract, that the people agreed to, so we need to find out what the people want to do with the government, and whether it is accountable

if not then change is possible, but direct democracy, ie communism, is the same goal

people are too stupid to know what they want or need

in ancapism, what stops Mcdonalds from creating McMilitias and invading Africa and enslaving africans?

@gronkt that's a counterproductive argument that will land you in the gulag

mob rule you get a pack of idiots looting and too lazy to work

kek

you have a bleak view of humanity sire slav

McDonald might make McMilitias

Right. Government was made to directly serve UNDER the people. I feel like the system has strayed from that. My main point is using technology to put the power of the body of government DIRECTLY in the hands of all citizens. Online

But so would Burger King or Walmart

They'd all fight

Survival of the fittest

Etc

Survival of the McFittest™

But, it's obvious something needs to be there to organize those laws. It's complicated

At least you could actually kill the bastards if you wanted to enough

@Dontkillmyvibe"Right. Government was made to directly serve UNDER the people. I feel like the system has strayed from that. My main point is using technology to put the power of the body of government DIRECTLY in the hands of all citizens. Online"

When companies start offering protection if people follow their rules and pay some of their money to them <:bour:313709044957315082>

And we have this technology.

Then you'd have to regulate the internet. The only source of anarchy we have left.

direct democracy is the goal of revolution. JOIN TODAY

Companies already do that

Insurance

Biggest thugs out there

We're required by law to purchase it too

insuance and lending is a scam of the rulers. moratorium on all debt and fear

deadly

@reprehensible that system would regulate itself. By using the computer you vote from to mathematically analyse other votes and track it in a ledger. It's blockchain, which can be programmed to do this.

Block chains are easy to track though
