^ not necessarily hivemind, per se. Manga Updates just happens to be a community where like-minded people gather. Most internet communities are like this.

Libertarian Right. Some questions were plain ridiculous though, I can't believe women rights are still being debated in the 21st century.

Quote from BoxBox
Quote from ExzyruSxxx
According to the way those axes were labeled, the majority of us are anarchistic communists
a lot of people doesn't think anarchistic government form is possible for large nations.
I agree with most of what BoxBox say but anarchism isn't communistic
it's purely anti-authoritarian and egalitarian
ther's anarchistic movements in every ideology and religion and even in history
for example in islam Kharijites
who always rebelled against authority and upheld that anyone (able) can be a ruler and must be elected by majority and if he was found unjust must be overthrown
i don't hide my affinity with anti-authority ideas because even if the state is necessary then it's a necessary evil and must be given the least possible powers over the individual/communities
(the last decade proves that with great power comes even greater evil 😲 )

Actually, communism and anarchism essentially have the same goal, a stateless and free utopia. The way they approach this goal is different. Classical Anarchism states nonviolence resolution and protest as well as legitimate changes within the government to slowly transform society into utopia. This complex network will be held together by the moral and ethical code of each individual. Karl Marx use to belong in this group. Marx use to be a humanitarian. As Marx got older, he became more cynical of human nature ever have enough potential to control themselves without government. He also doubt people will ever reach that period of self control. So he started changing his ideology and created communism. This states that since the world is already screwed up, logically you need to correct the people since they were corrupted by the system and the state. So what he propose is the dictatorship of the proletarian in which the sole power is given to few elite powerful individuals who, with enough education, will make the right choices. This came from social contact theory of Rousseau. If this sovereign is successful in slowly modifying society, one day, the government can disappear over night and utopia is achieved.
Two major problem with Marx:
1-"Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely". There's no guarantee such a powerful elite will be clean and righteous. Especially about the ending where they apparently just give up their power over night to become utopia.
2-There's no evidence that a particular kind of behavior is better. You can't go around forcing people into doing what you think is right for them. That violates too many human rights.
Two major problem with Anarchism, classical:
1- Such a complex system cannot be achieved for nation size population.
2-Anarchism doesn't actually tell you how to become that utopia. They say something like: "the world is constantly changing, so does our plan." It be nice for someone to come up with a plan on achieving utopia, on an anarchist world wide scale. 🤣
