If what you're doing is large enough to be an organization, it is probably trash.

Would you be able to elaborate? Personally I think lacking a large, international organization is a major barrier to progress. I guess it depends on your politics, but the way I see it, if people aren't coordinating a global movement, we might never truly abolish capitalism. Just a constant back and fourth between different factions from different geographical areas with different languages and different cultures.

I'd like to hear your thought process though. Maybe there's something I'm not seeing.

I dont believe capitalism will be replaced on a global or interplanetary scale with anything I would consider more preferable. One issue people tend to have is the assumption that others will think as they do or not fight against a change they view as detrimental to their understanding of the world. Global scale for anything is going to have to account for global difference of resources and opinions.

That isnt to say I dont find the idea nice...but i dont find it anything near realistic or practicable. Local anarchy on the other hand...much more practicable.

The fundamental question that must be addressed for any aspiring global scale solution is the question of enforcement. How do you enforce such things? It isnt very difficult to see that the answer will lead to archy. And I'm not a fan of archy.
