>Does "community" even exist?
Not online. We have to go outside and help establish it. The video reminds me of an Adam Curtis doc. It’s the Matrix, but we can pull the tubes out easily enough

We have only the past to learn from and only the future to hope for, but despite these idiotic arguments you people rehash and refuse to learn from, we live very much in the present.

Oh, you said “leftoid”. Which is what? A progressive? A hippie?

>>18967897
Yeah. It’s varied and complex, just like the natural world.

Nietzsche describes his Übermensch as a cross between an anarchist and an aristocratic. He was dreaming of a possible stage of life far off.

Yes, work and school are designed to lobotomize you
I guess I need to update this, but these are still solid recommendations

It’s close enough

I have worked my whole fucking life. And retirement seems an eternity away when I’m in declining health. This isn’t a reasonable lifestyle to press upon anyone. Haven’t you read Kropotkin? Graeber? Haven’t you yet looked at Bolo’bolo? Do you seriously think we’re all Bob Black, Michael Malice and Stirner?
Read a fucking book for once.

Not as you understand the word, no.

> What's the best possible way to react to the howling suffering, injustice, randomness and pain of this world? I'm certainly not one who believes that's all there is, but it's a big enough part of life to ensure that any functional and actualized person must contend with it forthright.

>So, how do you contend with it? Stoicism? Faith? Aggression? Pessimism? I am looking for books that answer this age old question in the best way. What is your way?

Sophisticated participatory social engineering
IE, libertarian-socialism

Organize the replacement. Join a co-op when and where you can

Books are allowed on the literature board nowadays aren’t they?

You mean the US as an entity or nuclear annihilation of the continent?

>start kvetching about muh right wing supporting the man
They do. Here they support Trump. But I believe there’s plenty with enough sense to see the sense in direct democracies. The US is not happy about this failing economy, and the feds are doing their best to make it about race or gun rights or Russia etc.
>Marx was
Dead now. I don’t care what you think of him.

We can’t have the direct democracy without getting them away from the brainwashing, sure, but once that happens, we get interconnected community and that IS socialism.

Currently reading Bolo’Bolo and Sadie Plant’s thing on the Situationists

But these three are my favourite next step pieces.

Keep dreaming/setting goals. Love a fulfilling life.

>Anrcho capitalism
There’s the contradiction in terms.

And no, apparently you can’t have socialism with centralized states. What tankies like to call “actually existing socialism” never was and cannot seem to to fulfill this. Ever hear of Rojava?
