no one has the ability to impose their decisions on anyone else

what's with the magical thinking that occurs when communalists talk to anarchists about democracy? always pretending it's something other than what murray very clearly defined it as with thousands and thousands of words

they are free to leave

wrong again, murray made sure to stipulate no one can leave. that would be breaking the law

It's not very useful propaganda to tell liberals democratic government is good. They already believe that.

I mean it makes sense. Slavery is a feature of reddit anarchism. What do you think they wanna do with war prisoners of their revolution, murderers or rapists that the majority want to punish or the animals they wanna eat. Or even what do they want their blue idols to do to their political enemies or the criminals they don't like.

I think slavery is just as essential to reddit anarchists philosophy as democracy if not moreso.

In my country we have "citizenship class" 1 hour a week. The first 4 years we studied Athenian democracy, only. The 4 next years were on my country's legal system and after that I was done for that class. Those were the most boring classes by far and taught me nearly nothing but at least I know how shitty the Athenian democracy was, even when ignoring all the problems of democracy itself.
