Understanding your desired definition of anarchism
A definition you value because it says that humans will be enterely helpful to each other the moment they are freed from the system you personally do not like (even if for valid reasons). There does not seem to be a lack of charity funds available and yet there is also no lack of people skimming from them.
You are saying my definition doesn’t mesh with others when all you point to is that of a couple individuals as well that you respect more than me. You can’t even hear my side of the argument without dismissing it because that is the nature of humans.
It’s impossible to also have a conversation with you as you insist holding onto your perspective because it’s what you brain is trained to do. It’s the way humans protect themselves and it’s why a singular self perceived idea of reality never works because it lacks the nuance of realizing others are here that do not share these thoughts.
You are correct in this being a waste of time but for the wrong reasons. And also likely why neither of us will have a victory in this ever. Ever. The best we can hope for is to accept and modify reality not change it.
Again, anarchism does not claim that we will abruptly end society and everyone will immediately cooperate. Anarchism does not rely on people being perfect. Anarchism is not the absence of rules (though the term “rules” may not be uses, since it implies connection to a hierarchical system).
You are using a false definition of anarchism, based on anti-anarchist misinformation and propaganda. You make as much sense as the “anarcho” capitalists. You think it means no rules, no guidelines, no societal roles.
Read up on the Zapatistas. There you will find a good example of an anarchist community at work. Even my non-profit, though not purely anarchist, adopts many of its principles, such as that of horizontality.
Good day to you. It seems you need more time to reflect and learn from what I’ve said. Honestly understandable – sometimes these forums seem to inherently encourage hostility and doubling down in spite of oneself, and I think you’ll come to know that what I’m saying is accurate once you’ve had some time to mull this over and maybe click some of those links I gave you.

Wow you self absorbed narcissist. You are right everyone else is wrong. And clearly it’s because you are the only one with a right answer. Show me you didn’t actually read anything I wrote harder. I hope one day you truly can comprehend what it means to be wrong and maybe you can catch a glimpse of reality once.
I truly hope you have a great day. I’m not perfect, but I don’t think I’m a narcissist. In fact, like most people I don’t need to be coerced or threatened into looking out for other people besides myself. I loathe inequality and bigotry, which is why I subscribe to anarchism.
You can absolutely be a narcissist if you think you are a shining example of the purity of man
I don’t think this. I’m flawed just like anyone else. In fact, I’m a recovered alcoholic/addict.
And ignorant if you think that its the only default.
I don’t. That’s why I read widely. I don’t think Marxism is the right way, but I’d even be open to be convinced otherwise. I can’t even settle on anarcho-communism or anarcho-primitivism. They both present compelling arguments and examples.
Thank you for touching my lowly peasant life oh mighty angel of good and empathy
I’m not. I’ve made some horrible mistakes, like the time I said I hoped the person who stole from me would … do something bad and permanent to himself. But I try my best to practice empathy, yes. I work with a lot of people who have been very hurt by our system.
May the Almighty SpongeBob fry you a Krabby Patty this day
And I’ve killed myself 6 times. Fully succeeded once.
People are flawed and that’s the nature of it all.
We can’t be scared of emotions or of feeling ways that aren’t immediately obviously beneficial but we can’t always think of ourselves as rational either. The world is not sane and does not breed sanity. It’s nice to think in perfect reality that might not be true but we don’t have that.
I think people feeling the ability to strive for the life they want but with restrictions is the only right answer and no system is a perfect answer for that because everyone wants something different. Some may even want social ladders and some want to rule atop them.
The work is what keeps us going so a system that lets people work towards their goals and makes room for moving past them with agreed sense of safety is what we need and is achieved by being unfortunately in the middle of reality and the desires of those within your borders and outside. It’s a pain in the ass and hard to keep people with that view in power too over time. But regression doesn’t work either. People want to strive and believe. And sometimes people need to be told to fuck off myself included. That’s how you maintain it.
Thanks for appreciating my SpongeBob though. Have a good day.

What a mess of an argument from you.
I truly hope you have a great day. I’m not perfect, but I don’t think I’m a narcissist. In fact, like most people I don’t need to be coerced or threatened into looking out for other people besides myself. I loathe inequality and bigotry, which is why I subscribe to anarchism.

I really do hope you click some of those links I gave you. I think it might surprise you what you find. Best wishes.
Edit: Just because you don’t understand something doesn’t make it a cult lol
Sorry but no thanks. Still not gonna join a cult based on a paradox.
