so nothing much would be different

When you listen to a bunch of dreadlocked whiteboy anarchists, that's basically what they're arguing for, they want a society where they can just sit around smoking weed all day instead of working, which is what they already do.

I really hate the anti-work left. I'm disabled. I cant work. I WANT TO, but literally can't maintain consistent schedules and long hours w/o time off for my health. The only job I could get would be at Goodwill for under a dollar an hour (this is done so disabled people can work without losing their benefits, but are still stuck in forever poverty, and ofc so Goodwill doesn't have to pay their workers). From my reading of the ussr they largely helped the disabled actually work (within accomodation) and feel productive w/o making them slaves. That's cute af

Yeah. I have a few disabled friends too, and it breaks my heart to see them fighting and struggling to survive because they aren't obviously visibly disabled enough, so they're constantly under scrutiny and they are constantly questioned about whether or not they really can't work a normal job or not. It's an awful, dehumanising system that assumes the worst out of society's most vulnerable people. All of them want to work, to give back to others, to give back to society, but they can't because the sort of work they can do isn't productive and profitable enough.

Horseshoe theory confirmed

My biggest criticism is idealism and that humans require centuries of social conditioning to achieve a stateless society.

[-] Omega_Haxors@lemmy.ml 18 points 1 year ago

Or at the very least get to the point where people stop thinking libertarianism is "a crazy new idea that might just work" and start seeing it for the noncery that it is.

This is literally what turned me off of anarchism cause they had no answer for racism

[-] ImOnADiet@lemmygrad.ml 17 points 1 year ago

this is how i feel too. it's why I look torwards specifically decolonial MLs as well. They offer the only path forward to smashing white supremacy imo.

[-] shath@hexbear.net 10 points 1 year ago
