    i do know that i don’t trust anyone else to decide how i keep myself fed and safe.

    Thats some right libertarian hyper-individualist hogwash. Stop being alienated from your fellow workers.

    i would empower individuals to a maximum degree and destroy concentrations of power wherever they’re found.

    So, let’s say the workers form Soviets. Those Soviets have to be destroyed, right?

      it is going to depend, isn’t it? are the soviets operated with consent and consensus?

      i already explained i have no illusions that i can dictate what it’s going to look like after the revolution. i do know what i won’t tolerate.

        So? It’s not like you’ve got consensus authority to destroy them. Though it does sound like you would try to anyway

        Is this material to whether the soviet is concentrating power? Either way you have a small group of people making legislative and executive actions.

          a system that operates with consent and consensus has no authority.

            Okay, you need to actually define authority, because I feel like each anarchist I’ve encountered has a different definition.

          if we’re working together I’m going to say how I think we should work.

            And I’m going to tell you you’re wrong. And then I’m going to find people who actually want to change the status quo for the better to work together with.

              implying that I don’t want to change the status quo doesn’t change whether I do.

                  You’re starting to sound like the liberals that tell me to vote for Biden.

                  I’m the authority on what I want. there’s no evidence that you could produce that would undercut my claim.
