Now imagine the Roman empire with the most endgame capitalism for-profit motive on every strata of society and they also have nukes. If/when America falls, it would be reckless to think they'll fall alone. I think it may actually look similar to how Russia tried to take Ukraine because their country was falling off a cliff economically, but like if Russia has military bases in the vast majority of countries on earth.

Trump could die tomorrow and fascism would still be a rising problem in the US from citizens hunting FEMA responders, to elected officials like Paxton and DeSantis. Unless you consider actual fascism normal there will be no normalcy for decades in the US. Maybe longer if we don't stamp out the fash.

Im no historian but I think we've made some headway in technology that allows for quicker longer distance organization in the past 2000 years.

If you cant tell anarchism from libertarianism, theres no intelectual basis to continue this conversation on. Which would explain why you set up a strawman with your second sentence.

So long as the local group autonomy is still respected that can work fine in theory. Once you start stripping groups of autonomy to make a beauracratic monster, you've lost the anarchism plot. A lot harder in practice to have a massive armed org that values that autonomy. Most of the time local groups will be linked to other groups. Just by group consensus, not by necessity because of course that too would not be anarchism.

Typically community defense, which means there are already armed groups, they just autonomous groups of people ready to defend their own communities. Similar to the concept of minute men if you want to think broad strokes.

Once the guy who broke the news about how trump and putin communicated initially informed us about elon and putin I just started thinking about what they have to offer each other.

I have a self made, self admittedly a conspiracy theory that since most of Elons money came from stock trading that he used Russian bots to inflate his social media presence for his pump and dump scheems and then bought twitter to have control of the website and evidence it may hide.

And for old money protecting it's own class interests.

If Musk was Chinese he'd be in gitmo by now.

Sounds like you're either not rich enough, not white enough, or both.
