Cause I see 3 years
those are three years more than you can hope for though
also I won't be able to answer in the next hour or so
3 years is a sad record for an ideology that is 100+ years old
did free territory even get 3 years?
Think it did
catalonia did for 3 years iirc
but that's besides what we talked about anaway
also g2g now
It also depends on which kind of anarchism. Lots do not care about terriorites, or use it as a metric of success. It is a bit of a colonial hangover to just look at a map and judge ideology that way. We live in a different world nowadays.
"The truth of collectivism -
Collectivism, demonized as a form of intense authoritarianism and a ripping away of the individual, is not something that the normals would ever embrace to sit upon their shoulders. Neither upon their hidden skin or their most secret insides. They delude themselves into seeing themselves as just a being which must be first focused upon, that without being perfect they can not properly work within society to help it heal; in turn give them a helping hand to rise above their own faults.
They refuse to allow the crowd to do for them and in turn to do for the crowd. Even if they do so, they do so unknowingly or begrudgingly.
Little do they truly know the value of the collective, the crowd. It is all too true that the collective can be toxic, that the collective can push you down, that the collective can harm you much further then any singular predator. But, this is not the product of society in of itself. In it's nature. But instead, of a decaying and sick society.
Deforming and melting under the heat and the suffering. Molding people into disgusting figures of what they once were. Without soft heart if with any at all, without a sense of pure wrongness. Without their most basic spirituality. Until all of society is deformed, and no longer is the individual to blame whatsoever. Instead, it is society's. It was society as it is that deformed and twisted our flesh and bones, which obliterated our highest existence. Yet, it was not. It was our own failing that twisted society into a monster.
It was our loss of the most noble values. From abstinence to fearlessness. Which in turn made the society such. Into a deformed, whimpering mess of a once great creature.
The burning hot stars begin to dim. There is no longer a going back. Only a black sky by night and a red, blinding sky by morn'. It's over."~Me
"“The capitalist,” they say, “has paid the laborers their daily wages.” To be accurate, it must be said that the capitalist has paid as many times one day’s wage as he has employed laborers each day, — which is not at all the same thing. For he has paid nothing for that immense power which results from the union and harmony of laborers, and the convergence and simultaneousness of their efforts. Two hundred grenadiers stood the obelisk of Luxor upon its base in a few hours; do you suppose that one man could have accomplished the same task in two hundred days? Nevertheless, on the books of the capitalist, the amount of wages paid would have been the same. Well, a desert to prepare for cultivation, a house to build, a factory to run, — all these are obelisks to erect, mountains to move. The smallest fortune, the most insignificant establishment, the setting in motion of the lowest industry, demand the concurrence of so many different kinds of labor and skill, that one man could not possibly execute the whole of them. It is astonishing that the economists never have called attention to this fact. " Pierre Joseph Proudhon
from its earliest conception, Anarchism has requiered collectivism. Why? Becouse left alone, any one person would freeze and starve to death. Only in cooperation can any single indevigual survive. Even in modern times
There is a difference between collectivism and co-operation.
Do you know how many social studies are done every year? Hand picking one that vaguely conforms with your politics does not make you smart or convincing, much less when you spam it over multiple channels. We are not only unimpressed, but insulted..

The best people in the world are like steel. They can be your shield and your sword. They can defend and play offense. Even if they start out cold, they eventually warm up to be the fire that you need in a snowy world
Warm steel would hurt like hell, don't want that shit neer me
yo people
what do you lot think about voting/abstaining?
does each citizen have the obligation to contribute to the electoral process even if they may not feel like supporting a specefic party
?
no democratic voting is horrible
completely unnecessary and detrimental
monarchy would be a better alternative than democracy
Something tells me you don't have the expirience or knowledge to back that up. (most likely you haven't left your house in years)
