    “No rulers” doesn’t mean “no rules.”

      But it does mean nobody to enforce the rules, which means no rules.

        No it doesn’t, name one anarchist society where this was an issue in the real world.

        https://anarwiki.org/wiki/List_of_Anarchist_Societies

        point to them here

          And the largest one in that list is…? And the longest lasting is…? Just because you can balance a knife on its tip doesn’t mean that that’s a stable configuration, and if anarchism is not stable, why bother talking about it?

            That’s a different point, we can move onto that one next if you’d like, first i’d like you to concede your previous one.

            simply admit what you said has never happened in the real world, and anarchism doesn’t mean no rules, it means no rulers.

            Unless you have an example where that happened on the list, where that was the reason for the collapse.

              My argument was just as high quality as yours.

          Perhaps you should do more than just read a book and look at the real world?

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Our Philosophies:

  • All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
  • Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
  • Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
  • We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.

Our Goals

  • Higher wages for underpaid workers.
  • Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
  • Better and fewer working hours.
  • Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
  • Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.
