I’m sorry if I didn’t make it clear but that’s kind of my point. I’m tired of teenagers who read half of 2.4, none of 2.3, and just expect magic to happen. I know there are people trying to work on alternative structures that don’t rely on exploitation but also are durable against aggressive groups that would take advantage of the lack of traditional authority. That’s the hard work that needs to be done.
Well then you can talk to people who have dedicated more time to think about anarchism. Instead of engaging with people you think are below your intellectual level and condescending on them.
Let the rest of the people have constructive conversations with them and move on.
Problem. They end up in an echo chamber and they go do something stupid. Then the corporate press uses it as evidence for why we aren’t allowed to have a different system.

Ah, that’s on me then, I read your comment as critical of anarchism as a whole, not of “anarchists” in aesthetic only 😅
Oh that’s perfectly fine. I’m a professional hair splitter and my words don’t always work as well as I would like.
