Indeed. Democracy does not exclude anarchy and in the case of the UN it's a voluntary union, each member is free to not participate and ignore the decisions made by rest of the union. People often criticize the UN as having little authority - that's because it's anarchistic in nature.

If there is a point to my example it is that society is a patchwork of ideologies, there is no "pure capitalist" society just as there is no "pure anarchistic" society. So to say one ideology does not work as totalitarian society is different then saying it does not work at all.

I mean we have the UN which doesn't have any one nation in charge. Geopolitics tends to be anarchistic.

Because we need even more parallels with Vietnam? I mean I kinda agree but for opposite reasons. The draft is how we got people breaking into the FBI offices and revealing cointelpro. Maybe a draft will motivate enough of us to liberated the rest of the Epstein files.

Person unaffected by past bad decisions doesn't see how that's a problem.

This is why we should lock down the OS to prevent people from creating databases of people. There are so many applications out there asking for people's DOB and that's because we let people just install whatever app they want. There's absolutely no positive use case for that.

To be clear, the punishment wasn't him loosing 2B, he wouldn't even notice the difference. The punishment was being told he was wrong by a jury of his "peers".

Yes, so you should ask for a big discount.

Free speech is when AIPAC channels unlimited dark money to influencers to disparage anti-zionist candidates like they did in Kat Abu's race. Free is quickly becoming worthless.

Yeah, we are about to get served a big slice of humble pie so bring your appetite. The pain we are all experiencing is there to tell us we cannot continue the way we were. We had the option to change in the past but didn't because it was too hard, now there is no avoiding change.
