I’m politically agnostic and have moved from a slightly conservative stance to a vastly more progressive stance (european). i still dont get the more niche things like tankies and anarchists at this point but I would like to, without spending 10 hours reading endless manifests (which do have merit, no doubt, but still).

Can someone explain to me why anarchy isnt the guy (or gal, or gang, or entity) with the bigger stick making the rules?

    thank you for explaining. This makes it a lot easier to grasp.

    Do you have a source that slowly zooms in on the topic so I can read stuff that helps me get an idea of more concepts regarding this?

      There’s a lot of classic books on anarchy. I think Peter Kropotato[sic] has a lot of stuff written before the Russian revolution that goes heavily into why capitalism and feudalism both suck.

        I mean, capitalism and feudalism is a nobrainer at this point (why they suck) but I’ll check it out. thank you! :)
