This was the actual original request

Can you give one example of a long-term, large scale, non-hierarchical system in human society?

Nothing on that page is an example of this

I spent 5 seconds during my morning routine to look this up. Would you rather I spend 3 hours writing a dissertation on all of the indigenous communities that have existed since prehistory that are structured in an egalitarian and anarchical way? You're also allowed to look this shit up. I recommend Andrewism on youtube, he pulls a lot of examples from anarchical indigenous societies

I'd rather you not post dumb pro-anarchy takes. That requires 0 seconds out of your day.

Got it, we're not allowed to question bourgeois democracy or capitalism. Good to know. I've officially stopped being an anarcho-syndicalist because you don't like it.

I don't care what you do because no percent of the population is suddenly going to rise up in an anarchist wave, ever

Go start a commune. I don't care. I genuinely wish you and your (149 or fewer, ideally) friends well.

The fact that you think anyone who isn't an anarchist must be a capitalist shows you understand politics at the level of a toddler.

I don't think that, stop prescribing my beliefs. Most people aren't capitalists. To be a capitalist, you must own means of production. That person essentially said "I don't want to critically think about your positions, so stop talking". I treated that response with the appropriate amount of seriousness it deserved.

If your answer is anarchy, then no, you are not allowed to question. Do a bit of maturing, and then you can question.

[–] rockSlayer@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's cute. Please, tell me what you know about political anarchy.

I know it's never worked.
