Letting normal people on the internet ruined it.

it didn't help that normal people morphed into techbros. -_-

Truth.

You must not know about anarcho capitalism.

2020-12-11 16:05:11 ET

i do. it's the worst version of capitalism and the most clueless. any ideology that pretends a completely greed-driven system left to its own devices will somehow also produce good results is ill-informed, ill-educated, and hiding from objective reality.

It's not that, it's a very dumbed down version of bartering and trade. I get it, and I'm ok with ancaps misguided as they may be, they still have the right energy, and they are still anarchist in my book.

yeah, no, sorry, it's not that simple. i do A LOT of economic study. i'd recommend looking up literally everything noam chomsky has ever said about anarcho capitalism. there are a ton of videos just on youtube of him ripping it to shreds. it's an ill-conceived system that doesn't work, regardless of how cool any of the people duped by it may otherwise be. there's a lot of propaganda for everyone in this country, anarchist or otherwise.

I audibly groaned when you said chompsky...
Also they tend to not understand a lot about the many nuances that are in anarchism, and they tend to be ok with a good bit of mutualism and other left thought as long as you drape it under the valuntaryist stupid black and yellow v shit.

dude, chomsky has been right about literally everything. you can groan all you want d-:

i've got nothing but respect for you, and i'm down with anarchists as much as i'm down with the rest of the human race, but anarco-capitalism is just as problematic as any other form of unfettered capitalism.
