This seems like a good place to talk about my one experience with an anarchist.

When I was pursuing my Master's degree there was a girl I had classes with who was an avowed anarchist. She would bring it up a lot in class, not necessarily in a controversial way, more like a "I need everyone to know this about me" a lot. She also worked for the university, which was public and state-funded.

Anyway, in one of our policy classes we had a project to develop a policy idea and present it to the class, who would then talk about it's merits and risks and political feasibility and what not.

Her presentation was over something called "Native American Land Reclamation Act" or something, of which the basic premise was complete de-colonization of America. She pulled up a big map of the US that outlined all the lands that were taken from the various Native American tribes by settlers (it was all of the continental US), and she basically outlined a plan to give all of the land back to the tribes. I wasn't trying to razz her or anything, but I was trying to figure out exactly how a policy like this would possibly work.

I completely ignored the difficulty of passing it legislatively. I asked "Native Americans make up like, what, 2% of the US population? So what happens to the other 98% of the American population? Are they deported?" and she goes "No, but they'll have to live by the rules of the individual tribal leaders and the way their customs/cultures dictate". So I asked "What about like, entire cities and private property and national infrastructure? Is that turned over to the...like 10 million people of Native ancestry and they get control of everything? What about private property?" and she was kind of like "Uh yeah it'll be redistributed". I didn't ask how.

The degree we were both pursuing was a Master's in Public Administration.

redistributed??? wtf she should have just said raze all the cities and establish communes and different modes of transpo like trains for a mass eco-conservation reclamation project

i don't get the weird hate against cities. it's actually much more efficient, and therefore greener, to have the majority of your people live in close proximity rather than constantly move things amongst a billion different little communes.

I was kinda being facetious for promoting anarcho-primitivism but I am actually very interested in turning urban spaces more green because they have health benefits and clean up pollution

short vid shows a lot of vertical designs to grow trees on facades and rooftops, its rad

the biggest issue is how cities promote car culture and vice versa because of lovely urban design of the last century and atomizing communities through suburban and highway projects

I think the optimal idea is to have cities free of car culture, with high(ish) density living and fully walkable with a solid public transit network.

As much as I dislike the downsides of apartment living, such as having noisy people way too close to me, and limited space, I think it's the best way forward.

Re: monarchists from page 2

I decided to check out the monarchist subreddit, and some of them seem squeamish about enforcing their trad values using government enforcement. It seems like those ones in particular are just larping for the aesthetics and don’t understand their own philosophy in regards to the purpose of monarchy and the relation of power.

Which is a good thing they don’t understand since monarchism is one of the spookier subcultures

I'm sort of mutualist. I believe a free market of competing firms is the best economic system but those firms should be worker-owned. Also a lot of instances of capital, like rentiering, usury and intellectual property all take more effort to maintain societally than allowing their more natural alternatives like use-ownership of real estate and free data. I see capitalism as a form of anti-meritocratic economic inertia because of its tendency toward monopoly, and I think it's simply more efficient to reduce that by being socialist than to mitigate it indirectly with social democratic reforms

in short I've got a centrist mindset but reached economic conclusions that are considered leftist
