This sounds agorist in nature, but can we agree that it is far from anarchy?

Yeah Agorism is how I would choose to define it.

How do you define anarchy in this conversation? It’s a word that’s been co-opted and the meaning distorted. Similarly to socialism and communism, just according to their original definitions.

Rothbard and others refer to themselves as anarchists or anarcho-capitalists and have written extensively about these types of economic philosophies. Opt in, market / economic driven societies. I thought this is what you were referring to. Maybe we’re just not defining the word in question the same to start.

I tend to define anarchy as the absence of adherence to the rule of law or social and cultural norms. I see it as a state of animalism where self gratification is the only tenet attended to. As such, humanity would devolve to a lone wolf mentality, with survival at all costs ascending to the top priority, followed by unconcerned procreation. If it sounds familiar, maybe you saw it on Animal Planet. 😒

Sounds like San Francisco 😂😂

Yeah we were speaking on different definitions. Anarcho-capitalism or Agorism imo can work and work better for the individual than the nation state model. But like I said before tech has to improve still for smaller Agorist societies to flourish. It’s happening though! We’re here watching and participating in some big changes.

Yep, it’s been nice talking to you. We’ll work towards a brighter future.

Yesser. And same, good chat. I’m optimistic.
