Pfft you Wallers are so delusional. Every self respecting Flattie knows that the firmament is a dome.

If you understand how things work then you'd understand why that will never happen under the electoralists system.

Even if we elect a "regular" person into a position of hierarchical power their commanding interests stop being tied to that of the people and instead become enamored with emboldening their power in order to maintain what meager concessions they have managed to claw out from the system in their initial campaign, which will inevitably shift their interests to the interests of the economy (i.e. the interests of the owning-class as we exist in a capitalist economy) as the government's power is directly correlated to the strength of the economy.

We don't have a tax problem. We don't have an income problem. We have a fundamental systemic problem.

See, evasion isn't an ability, it's a trait and by that I mean you don't get to choose to use evasion; it's a perk that triggers during specific scenarios. Namely, only applied when "you are subjected to an effect that allows you to make a Dex save to take only half damage"

So, it's funny, Mr. Rogue, that I don't quite remember calling for a Dex save ...

There is at least one inner-city mailman out there who loves Death Stranding that is bouncing for fucking joy right now.

No, it isn't.

The very concept of an elected representative who has authority over a mass of others is literally a hierarchy where the elected official gains authority over the populace.

You don't have a point that is worth a damn because your point is uneducated and misinformed.

Whatever you watched you didn't understand. You clearly do not comprehend even the fundamentals of Anarchism.

The American system is not a system where the power comes from the bottom up. It is very much hierarchical where entities have authoritative power over the rest. The feds exist above the state that exists above the county that exists above the city. When the feds make a law, everyone underneath them in the hierarchy has to obey its law or be policed. It's happening right now in the US how this hierarchical structure is forcing states to withhold releasing SNAP funds because the federal government, her on the hierarchy, commands it of them. America is also hyper-capitalist, the system of private property ownership where the owner exists above the laborer/consumer, which is also inherently hierarchical.

I'm not here to tutor you, and I'm not going to engage in an argument theorizing over "what works" with someone who doesn't even understand the fundamentals of hierarchy versus anarchy. You have no authority to request examples of me for you to judge what does or doesn't work.

If you need explanation, there are videos on YouTube. Anark is a good one who is very in depth with his theoretical knowledge.

Nice cherry picking.

Yes, "it comes from" as in "the work culture of [America] comes from", because that's what the previous paragraph in my comment was about.

Again, learn to read.

This is such a gross misrepresentation of those suffering from the myriad of mental health issues that can manifest as hoarding.

Hoarders aren't stupid people "collecting" trash on purpose. It is a manifestation of unhealthy coping mechanisms surrounding resource instability, so they have a tougher time mentally letting go of things because they might need it later and not be able to obtain replacements, or an issue of executive function where the trash becomes a mountain too large for them to climb and they have spiraled out.

Non-hierarchical systems where power of authority comes from the bottom up through mutual agreements between participants to ensure no singular entity within the government can command control of another.

Have you even attempted to read any anarchist theory? This is Anarchism 101

People don't like being told the truth.

What an utterly myopic argument that is devoid of critical analysis of our societal systems that dictate what those roles in society are to begin with.

Bet you think communism is "inherently authoritarian" don't you?

Yup, this right here is exactly what broke me out of the nostalgia haze.

Just the utter nickle-n-diming for the most basic things really rubbed me wrong.
