I agree with that (unlike the other answer I got to this; yeah, Soviet-aligned states were definitely very free societies amirite /s), but then again, sometimes there are more or less successful movements toward more freedom. The history of the 20th century alone is that of the century ending with much more freedom in the world than there was during most of it. How have we completely forgotten those values?
Yes. Just to be clear I’m not a pessimist, I don’t believe we can’t achieve more freedom. I’m just an anarchist. I believe to truly end domination and have self-determination, the move towards freedom must ultimately aim to end the state.
I think there are things we need some sort of state for... but certainly think its power should be limited so that it can't do things like what this thread is about!
