So the deal is other people produce and you steal from them? Is that your motto under the present system and under anarchy?

I don't consent to living in capitalist society. Stealing is a way of taking what I need and undermining capitalist morality, law and economic interests to some extent.

In anarchy, it's a bit different, as there are no prohibitions or permissions. I would be even more careful with who I stole from and why I steal from them. There would probably have to be some sort of significant dispute to make that even worth it.

I dunno, you seem like you just want to recreate the dynamics of liberal democracy on a more decentralized scale. You're at the very least spooked beyond reproach by enlightenment values shared by liberals. Your username is also a clue. Political pragmatism is mostly associated with realpolitik.

But the real answer is that you hit me with the tired "OK boomer" format and I responded in kind.
