so what's the plan for heavy industrial processes such as the ones required to create estrodiol on a wide scale

if only there was some sort of model wherein most industries would be placed in local worker' governments' hands, and leave strategically important industries that require strong oversight to a centralized democratically accountable state

anarchists don't know what industry does, they're too busy writing zines and making music

imagine running industrial processes that modern society relies on to keep everyone alive in a "non-hierarchical" way

doesnt answer the question lmao. most anarchists conception of industrial manufacturing is stuck at a caricature of Victorian textile mills. if you tried to draw a chart of all the industrial inputs needed to produce a single microchip inside your phone (including all of the extremely specialized materials and equipment used by each supporting industry) you'd go insane.

but sure, self organize that you smelly weirdo

Talk shit, get bzzzt.

Take the old system, remove the aspects of heriarchy and replace them with a horizontalist management method. It isn't hard, and I don't mean to shock anyone, but we have ~computers~ that can manage the nitty gritty day to day. I know it's revisionist western science, so it'll take a while for it to sink in. It's also quite telling that ya'll assume we have to do much ourselves. I have no idea how a foundry works, but I can let the foundry workers do what they will once the boss is out of the way. Will you defend the necessity of bosses, so long as they are called soviets?

Yall sure talk about anarchism without knowing anything about it.

i don't know star wars very well so the guest hayley was a useful source of info. but all of them talking over each other and her made these episodes unlistenable at certain points tbh. like she'd go to say something interesting and immediately the other 3 would just start babbling excitedly. bit rude.

Matt was annoying as gently caress in the Episode III one especially. He made it almost unlistenable

there's a pretty big difference between keynesian capitalism with capital controls and a lot of domestic industrial production within the developed countries, and the neoliberal globalizes capitalism that followed. yea they're both forms of capitalism, but flattening both periods into the same thing doesnt make sense to me

We can try to understand why one thing turned into the other though and in the more conspiratorial version it's just because some bad people like money more than their country or whatever.

to mock what trueanon was saying you first have to believe, with a hand on your heart, eyes tearfully raised to the US flag, rosey of cheek and some apple pie up your rear end, that a 747 collided with one of the tallest buildings in the world and in the resulting explosion of jet fuel and office paraphernalia, the hijackers passports were ejected from the cockpit intact and fluttered gracefully to the street below where some intrepid FBI agents discovered them and gee whizz'd them on over to the office where the 9/11 commission was holding its first meeting.

basically you must be a child, and not a very bright one.

uh please someone found it on the ground while evacuating and were a good Samaritan and turned it over to a NYPD officer who gladly took it as part of his sworn duties to reunite someone with their lost passport in the middle of 9/11. Regular stuff.

it just ocured to me that 9/11 could've been a cia setup like the fbi does with muslims where they buy all the ingredients to a bomb for someone and basically bully some mentally impaired kid into saying "yes mr. fbi i want to blow up the post office" but the cia was incompetent and it uh got out of hand

Trueanon at least made a decent point that the anthrax attacks could have been a false flag poo poo. Little extra push to make sure 9/11 got the patriot act through.
