@British Knight the competitive nature of modern humans derives itself more from our present material conditions than anything biological. There is absolutely no credible scholarly work out there that definitively proves the natural state of the human mind, and all that can be accurately stated is that when humans are placed in a system that requires you to be competitive; they're going to be competitive. This is not the natural state of human beings, rather it is the present state of human beings. Do no be mistaken and assume capitalism is the natural state of things. Prior to capitalism and feudalism there was communalism, which in its practice demonstrated the capability of the human being to act in cooperation with the whole for the betterment of everyone. Not to mention that cooperation is what ultimately led humans to their advanced status.

@British Knight "Can never work" Catalonia. Rojava. Free Ukraine. The Black Blocks across the world. The only time they "can never work" is when outside forces try and fuck them over. It isn't because they are flawed, its because when people actually try it, other powers prevent it from working.

Are you anarcho syndicalism now.

The funny part is this is exactly what would happen under any anarcho- prefixed system. Some dude would just gain a bunch of followers, then go around pillaging and killing everyone else. Anarchism has already been tried, it was tried in the stone-age, and it failed miserably to all other systems.

Oliver Swartz, Meaning - he doesn't work/isn't working class?

Or maybe just ain't a schmuck. The world so just one view, not everything fits in a box including typical stereotypes. Working class is just as often as unethical as the non working "elites". Main reason I've backed out of getting involved with groups until observing them for a while. More often than not it becomes apparent there is an ego heiarchy structure, unspoken but there. There a few exceptions. The road ahead is long keep true to your heart but don't leave truth behind.

@@pmaughmer That's some counter-revolutionary liberal bullshit. The working class do not have enough economic and political power for their "unethical" actions to hurt people on a global fucking scale. The working class will never, for example, lend out sub-prime loans, bet against those loans, and tank the world's economy ruining countless lives. And if they some how managed to do that, do you think they would also have the most powerful governments in the world already bankrolled as to not only save their asses from facing any justice, but to get bailed out on top of it? It's about power dynamics, and not letting a small group of people wield so much of it that it crushes everyone around them.

​@@Kaine667 the working class commits petty crime because of lack of power/capital. The ruling class commits large-scale acts of corruption to maintain their power and capital.

@@TheSilael Silence Communist

It is extremely dangerous and may attak at any time, so we must deal with it.

If income inequality reaches a certain point, there will inevitably be theft. If people don't voluntarily accept that inequality that leads to their starvation, the people hoarding wealth will not sit idly by while the less affluent take back their resources. The more affluent will buy the services of violent people to protect their private property. What stops those that acquired too much wealth from violating the NAP?

Exactly. There are no other means of doing economics other than modern Neoliberal capitalism and Stalinist communism. All other economic systems do not exist and can not exist. LOL

HowToComputer, You seem to be looking at a superficial definition of Communism. Communists, and Anarchists have a focus on who controls the means of production, not what degree that the government controls the economy. Communists want to seize control over the means of production and abolish private property (which is different than personal property). They want to take over the state and have the state take over the means of production. This period is called socialism. During this time, the state uses its power to fight off foreign threats and adjust people to life in autonomous collectives. Once everyone is in autonomous collectives, that government type will be called "communism". Anarchists all want to abolish all unjustified hierarchy. How they do this varies because there are so many brands of anarchy. Other than wishing to abolish hierarchy, Anarchists are divided on how things should be run and how their goals will be achieved. The end goal of Communism and Anarchism are the same thing: they want small autonomous regions with federalized representative leadership. (Some brands of anarchy disagree with this.) Libertarians and Ancaps sometimes find the ideas of Mutualism interesting. Mutualism is a form of anarchy that believes in using currency, but against the hoarding of resources.

Please tell me. What anarchist groups are you talking about that killed millions? There are certainly weaknesses in anarchism, but it is not corruption. Can you apply the same metrics of death by capitalism? There are real issues with the Bolshevik revolution like the loss of farming knowlege that lead to starvation. There is starvation in our capitalist system. Do you count the wars and pollution, the political executions (which both capitalists and communists both did alot of)?

@@clayton717 Hi ho, hi ho, the gallows the bosses must go

Simön Faur is it a choice when the alternative to working is starvation?

Simön Faur if you are the modern day equivalent of a peasant, you often don’t have that choice. When you’re extremely poor, you don’t have the option to stop working to find a new job.

Simön Faur I also think voting for your boss is a misnomer, because if someone is your boss, they have power over you due to the fact that they own the business itself. That power is coercive, no matter to what extent. I believe that that power dynamic is unjustified, just as a watery tart handing swords is not a valid basis of government. I concede that my language was less than concise and I did misread your comment as a critique of anarchism, instead of what I now assume was a critique of method of implementation. So I apologize for any misinterpretations that stem from that. More of my point is that these kind of structures as they exist are unjust, and we should actively engage in discussion about how to justly and swiftly reorganize our society without trampling on people’s freedoms.

Yes this and also the works of Noam Chomsky.

Funny though, Michael Palin is practically the Queen Mother in his home country today.

Welcome comrades :)

@@talkeetnatattoos Well the conclusion is the right one. So best thing that can happen: being entertained and educated.

@@talkeetnatattoos This is an odd sweeping statement, as it really depends on which actors and comedians you're talking about. Ever watched actor and comedian George Carlin, for example? The best comedy has always been based in the truth, at least at some level, as it pokes fun at the truth, which the audience can recognise. Satire is a form of comedy that is universal and political in nature. It is useful for pointing out flaws in our ideas about politics in a way which is thought-provoking, humourous and understandable, which makes the message more likely to reach masses of people. Or is your problem with comedians or actors influencing political thought, actually that political ideas aren't legitimate unless spouted by some professor in a terribly intricate and clever way, so ordinary people (who don't have the time or energy to read mountains of political literature, and therefore are obviously not capable of making benevolent judgements or decisions for themselves) shouldn't be able to access or understand those ideas? I fear for the future of our children and their children (and so on, and so on) if we continue to allow a short-sighted greed-driven system to create ever-increasing poverty for the insane wealth of a few, and decimate our planet's resources in the process. I'm sure plenty of actors and comedians defend this system, but so do many learned political thinkers, doesn't mean any of them are justified or correct in doing so. No matter how an idea is introduced to you, it is always up to you to think for yourself and try to figure out what you believe.

I love the 'moistened bint' line. Whole skit is flippin' great!

i wish they'll do too... but they mostly don't leave their basement

Autonomous collective requires land and the ability to pay taxes for said land. Its extremely difficult to legally do sustenance farming in many countries due to this. Also, after hippies started their communes, many states passed laws restricting certain numbers of unrelated people from living on the same property. Capitalism depends on our inability to freely grow our own food and provide for our own basic needs- it's not an accident that its hard to do this legally under a capitalist state. I know people struggling to start their communes. It's purposefully way harder than it needs to be due to taxes, laws, etc.

⁠@@garbagetrash2938this is why I always laugh at anarcho-capitalists. When you ask them how they propose their ideal society be structured, their response is usually feudalistic, with CEOs instead of kings

​@@deviantsemicolon618 why not have a workers unionism with a bottom up power structure instead of an inherently top down dictatorship?

The thing about kings is, sometimes you'd get lucky and have a really good one. And as a king, a supreme ruler not dependent on elections, he'd have near-absolute power and be able to do a lot of decent things. And then society would prosper and remain happy and stable for quite some time. But with CEOs, magnates and hedge fund billionaires, you never really get a good one, because there aren't any. Oh, maybe once in a while there's a sort of neutral one who tries to do cool things and sometimes succeeds, like Elon Musk or Steve Jobs. But mostly there's just an endless succession of bland, beady-eyed creeps--venal, arrogant, conscienceless, greedy, and megalomaniacal, and in charge of SO much power it's terrifying. I'd almost rather take my luck with a royal family, especially in this modern era when they are no longer able to lop off peoples' heads at will, AND a little nervous that we might lop off theirs.

To push back on one point: as Dennis says, supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses. Elections, assuming they're fair, do bestow authority to govern.

It was very relevant UK politics in the 1970s which was a big part of why it appeared a lot in their comedy.

Worker coops and labour unions have a big tradition in classic european industrial powers like Britain, German or France. We're culturally similar, but the mentality is completely different to the US

Its hard to say they were making fun of leftist when Dennis is basically right on all counts. More pastiche than parody. But I take your point
