Also, Isn't anprim litterature full of critiques of economics?
Finally, An anarchists FAQ has a few paragraphs on economics. http://anarchism.pageabode.com/afaq/secCcon.html

Yeah I was venting because I got bullied into paying a fine that I was not meant to pay.
The city planned the fine so they're responsible too.

The nuance is that they still work to get paid.
Patent holders or copyright would be the "digital equivalent" of capitalists imo, since it's also a passive income.

It's a little late but a step towards deplatforming nazis is a step in the right direction.

I wouldn't put them into categories based on what they technically are, but on what they do.
Why do anarchists not like cops?
- they preserve status quo
- they bully poor people
- etcs
Do park rangers help or harm the community?
Other jobs close to nature that may interest you:
- hydrogeologist
- biologist

Reply to comment by Ant in [Discussion] Anarcho-transhumanism is the most effective way to create equality for everyone. What are some pros and cons? by thekraken
but even in an anarchistic world, the grand power held by those who adopt technology would doubtlessly require others to adopt technology, or be at the mercy of the technocrats
"Don't make alcohol and drugs because xxx'ers feel left out when the others party" lol
Differences in power between two people will exist in every society. As an anarchist, I believe that it isn't inherently in powerful people's nature to try to overpower and control less powerful people. Why would a high tech world be different?
Alienation
TBH I can't really answer this one because I'm too young to have lived before technology, so ican't compare. but imo as anarchists we would feel Left out and alienated by any society we live in.

Reply to [Discussion] Anarcho-transhumanism is the most effective way to create equality for everyone. What are some pros and cons? by thekraken
Pros:
- the ideology itself brings good answers to questions about "the nature of humanity" and the identity of a person, by actually confronting situations at the"edge of humanity".
- doesnt rely on appeal to nature fallacy
- either it works and we do not need to care about anything anymore forever. Either it doesn't and we get wiped, and don't need to care about anything anymore forever.
- assymmetrical conflicts: the revolutionnary individual has much more power and impact.
- transhumanism deals with very complicated systems, and the bigger the system, the bigger the potential (for best or worse)
- not tried yet so not proved to fail: dive into the unknown.
Cons:
- very often @h+s are idealists who imagine Utopias
- vaporware ideology by definition (it kinda stems from previous point)
- Very little litterature, very new ideology
- plagued with ancaps and hierarchyists
- plagued with apolitical tech bros
