Amazing concept ruined by the constant verification on every message.

Europe bureaucracy is quite corrupt.

Except technology will be used instead for the exact opposite — techno-fascism.

AI and technology at large are funded and developed by the corrupt elite abusing power and their position in the hierarchy, further entrenching the hierarchy and their ability to abuse it for their own interests.

Although it is possible for tech to be used for good, that is an idealistic outlook that’s unlikely to occur in reality (at least in the sense of it doing away with abuse of hierarchy).

I think that bureaucracy is inherently problematic (corrupt).

I’m fairly familiar with the notion of a direct democracy and can get behind it otherwise.

Thats kind of why I am skeptical of any communist movement that isn’t explicitly also anarchist (i.e. intending to destroy hierarchy). It leads to what you described

Well I’m glad you can say that.

In my experience there are people who defend both China and “DPRK” as a communist paragon with reasoning that is although extensive dodges any real criticism of China (from either an external standpoint, or from within a communist pov).

It was my impression that such “tankies” are the primary base of communists (or common enough for it to be a problem), which pushed me away from it.

In practice, it isn’t, usually. None of the communist states extant today or historically had a decentralized system without hierarchies.

We’re talking anarchism, not communism

Yes

Still, trying to make Iran the enemy is problematic.

And based on what evidence have you determined that the EU is genuinely reconstructing things behind the scenes and will actually stop being a sycophant for the US?

There’s the credit card and tech shift but I’m skeptical of the EU. There’s little historical precedent that doesn’t suggest they’d support the US (despite some badmouthing), and the German leader/head of the EU shuts down palestinian protests in the name of “freedom of speech”. Zionism.

The majority of Israel’s citizens think the apartheid is okay.

It’s something they’re indoctrinated into believing.

So remind me why the EU hasn’t started sanctioning and directly opposing the US in its wars and everything lately? Anything that actually hits them, beyond just “we strongly condemn”?

And there’s Japan, despite the image for technological advancement — still relies hard on cards and/or physical forms of currency and payments.

Israel’s flag.

What makes you say that?

The same countries supplying USA with arms and condemning Iran one-sidedly?

Pearl harbour resulted in Hiroshima Nagasaki, which obliterated Japan as a political opponent. The US has no reason to look back at that and fear, because they won.

9/11 was an inside job.

Yeah I think I misremembered.

I’ll DM you.

Appreciate the response.

It’s funny, I just saw a meme where anarchists were portrayed as being the ones to ditch communists after common goals have been achieved.

What community/instance would you recommend?

Do you mind getting into a discussion around what anarchism is/etc more?

Ok but why does he look like a Dark Elf?
