Fuck bureaucracy!

Adam, did they let you drop out, or did you just stop going to school? I realize a lot of things are different over there, we have compulsory education here, but if your parents sign some stuff you can drop out at 16 or 17, or you can sign the forms yourself to drop out at 18. I don't understand how they expect you to go back to school though, seeing as there isn't a semester that starts in the next four months, except summer school I guess.

It's a long, loooooooooooooooooooooooonnng story. I'm sure non of you wants to hear it as me not wanting to tell it.

And apparently i didn't know so much about anarchy either, but i'm still holding the position it can work in theory, but not in real life. As debbie said, power hungry people are a bitch.

Same reason Communism is bad, because people. If there weren't people it would be great.

If no people, then there would be no point of social systems.

Says you! Robots could have communism!

Well this got off topic in record time, haha

Technically we are still on topic.

It's not that their won't be ANY governance, just not a central government. It boils down to a zero sum game, everybody keeps everyone in check when the power is distributed evenly. Police and other securities will be privatised.

I'm not sure I know what makes a government "central", but the privatisation bit makes sense.

One of the main reasons why it won't work in our current society is because people are power hungry. Even if you start from scratch and everyone is equal, eventually someone will want to be more and that will then build up again to some sort of goverment.

Prime example if where anarchism worked was in Africa, the tribes sorted each other out. It was only when the Europeans came and brought over thier systems that things started to go south politically. But the europeans arriving had other advantages.

That's my first concern; no one is equal, whether an anarchist likes it or not. It's human nature/Darwinism that will kick in and the more powerful members of society will have the upper hand and become the leaders. So not only do you come back to where you started, but it might be worse.

And apparently i didn't know so much about anarchy either, but i'm still holding the position it can work in theory, but not in real life.

Isn't communism like that as well?

Sorry, I suck at this sort of subject

OT: It's until age 16 here. Then you can legally drop out.

Isn't communism like that as well?

Way to read my post.

lol oops

I wonder if society was comprised of robots communism or anarchy would work.

Well, you are the computer science major aren't you? My guess would be communism, but not anarchy, because something would have to tell all the robots to do stuff.
