RE: Not My Meme! #699

What he tries to do, as I understand it, is enable people to find their folks and create high trust communities that can work together to develop prosperity they produce themselves, which I agree is the best way to live no matter what your views or politics are, or what is happening politically. Broze is an Anarchist, and his work is aimed at enabling people to avoid external governance and govern themselves. It may not be your cup of tea for that reason. He's also focused on his personal philosophical beliefs in many of his endeavors, which is perfectly reasonable, but he does try very hard to create mechanisms that are just as useful regardless of whether people are vegans or spiritually non-traditional. I give him a lot of credit for that, because that's just as easy to be biased about as race, and folks that pride themselves on promoting race-mixing also tend to do the same kind of thing regarding veganism or meditation. At least he tries, and largely succeeds, IMHO, to not go there.

I don't believe anyone has any just or lawful authority over me anymore than he does. I don't like the word Anarchy because it means no rulers, and I rule myself with an iron fist. I am an Autarch. We are all Autarchs, so I believe we live in a pan-Autarchy that is corrupted by Machiavellian psychopaths that use gangs of armed thugs to extort us into compliance and use a lot of deceptive words on paper to rationalize that extortion. But, I'm silly like that and believe the specific meaning of words matters.

Thanks!

Well since you took all the work for such versed answer let me retort, i only said i do not consider myself an anarchist because the word itself is many times miss used, it is my understanding most say it is the absence of govern, and this is not true, it is on the other hand, the LACK of any of it, because each one of us is capable to work and behave in a self governing way. Aside this i agree and see myself in the same way you do, i only obey laws that i find just, if a law is not enforceable or is unjust i will not abide to it, like any person should, problem this days is i find myself disobeying alone many times at some cost haha, but one must remain truthful and stand for what he believes.
If the guy does the effort to not permeate its own philosophy with his own bias then that is one more case in point to give him a look. Thanks friend!
