Same does anyone who is not a democracy

Bless Assad

Assad is good but Un is a hero

Heil Juche

Nigger

This is not what I expected when I decided to join a left wing discord..

Was expecting some enlightened discussion, not basically what I expect from a right wing discussion replacing the words capitalism for communism and replacing the word poor people for black people...

Enlighten me then fag

On what :c

Literally anything

Tell me why you aren't a National socialist

Because I have contempt for hierarchy.

Anarchist?

Quite.

Ancom?

No. I disagree with the Ancom philosophy. I lean somewhere between the Anarcho-syndicalist and Mutualist ideas.

Then that may be the reason we can't make a functional debate

Nice. You're about one third of the way to fascist

Some of us embrace the idea of totalitarianism

I went from anarchist to tankie to natsoc

Unfortunately, I lie on the vertical opposite side of the spectrum.

Why don't you like hierarchy

Some people call this right wing

Its unnecessary to governing.

Sure but so is decentralization. Necessity isn't the question

Necessity is exactly the question. If it is not required then why should we spend the money on it, why should some people be placed at certain higher offices when said officer are not remotely needed to provide the function they've been tasked?

hello

are some of you anarchist here ?

*waves hand in the air*

it's hard to find other anrchist on discord

The question actually is neither ethical nor monetary. It is a question of organic development. Hierarchy exists in all facets of society as it is a organic process born from power struggle. Some people have more influence and social capital than others and they find their words and ideas gaining more weight and reverence than those without that.

Then they are elevated to positions of authority by their peers. Wallah hierarchy

This is somewhat true but that is, as Rousseau said, a product of existence in a world with hierarchy. There is some level of conditioning that people are subject to. Being raised in a hierarchical society only breeds a craving for gaining power and a degree for selfishness. Strip such 'organic processes' away by doing away with such unneeded hierarchy in governing and there is no reason to suggest why society could not function better, be more ethical and prosperous.

Social conditioning can't be taken out of us since it itself develops in society and is a product of social relations. Magnitude aside, as soon as you are subject to another person's words or actions you are being conditioned

A large anarchist experiment was taken during the 70s in regional U.S where all members of the commune had an equal say in how the community was run through direct democracy and participation. This resulted in individuals gaining social credit and becoming powerful. Rendering the material process of decision making irrelevant

The conditioning can be taken out. If you manage to persuade the ignorant masses that anarchism can work. The same way all political philosophies gain support. National Socialism is an example of this. But insofar as your comment about the experiment, this relates to what I just said that you can’t take someone out of a hierarchical state and expect them to act any other way than they did before. This is not human nature we are seeing in that experiment it’s the conditioning under the state.

Interesting that you see the commoner as a ignorant and presumably easily duped yet you think they should be given equal decision making capacities as an academic or professional?

You are closer to fascism than you might be conscious of.

I am not blaming them for them not understanding, but rather the state.

Okay but what is the difference between you and a non anarchist then? Obviously you see yourself as being more conscious of the world around you.

Fundamentally you recognize there are stupid and smart people
