You were banned from an anarchist comm for being pro incarceration.
- bro what tf is “pro incarceration”. should murderers just be left alone?
  
  Go ask an anarchist if you really want to know but it shouldn't surprise you that they're generally against putting people in prisons and find all ICE detention centers abhorrent (ie "Go read the 8th amendment").
  
  I don’t respect any anarchist who hasn’t moved somewhere like Somalia or Western Sahara, i.e. places with no functioning government and which are quite literally in anarchy. They’re all just cosplayers who hide behind a combination of privilege and ignorance.
  
  You have a child's understanding of anarchism if you think "anarchy is when no government". And to be fair there are lots of children online who do believe that.
  
  noun: anarchy
   a state of disorder due to absence or nonrecognition of authority or other controlling systems.
  You can’t “no true Scotsman” an argument by just saying that two textbook-definition examples don’t apply while giving no counter examples or elaboration why.

  pick one successful example. it should be easy since there are so many
  
  pick one successful example of a capitalist society that isn't evolving into a fully fascist authoritarian regime.
  
  Iceland
  Bonus: Switzerland, Norway, Denmark, Germany, Sweden, Australia, The Netherlands, Belgium, Ireland, Finland, Canada, New Zealand…
  
  yeah, it figures that a liberal would pick a bunch of countries that are current or former fascists and US allies in a list of "successful" capitalist countries. half these countries are in the news at this very moment for curtailing their citizens rights and privacy, and the other half are colonial states with a long history of genocide.
  in other words, the very definition of successful for a liberal. you and tankies have more in common than you think, bud.
  
  That is a child's understanding of anarchism. Anarchy is not Anarchism. There is nothing to "no true Scotsman" when we're talking about completely different words. Its like saying "communism is when you live in a commune".
  I don't expect everyone to be well versed on 19th century philosophies but at least don't be so arrogant about your ignorance. If you want to learn more go ask the people the people at DB0.
  Edit: looks like you found one and demonstrated your learning disabilities to them. Good job!
  
  i’m sorry your fantasy political system where everyone magically works together has zero real world examples of success.
  also calling someone out for “learning disabilities” is certainly a choice, maybe if you actually had the courage to back your ideology you could move somewhere that you can use the real word you want to.
  
  Buddy I never said I was an anarchist. I just actually know what the word means. That's why i kept directing you to DB0. Your ego and arrogance has clearly affected your ability to learn.
  
  "Libertarian socialism" is a synonym for anarchy, in a political ideology sense; replace the latter with the former in your head when you see it and it will make much more sense.
  
  Lmao that literally doesn’t make any sense and the fact that you can’t provide a single example of it in the real world should illustrate that fact.
  
  Anarchist Catalonia.
  
  Wow a government that lasted less than three years, and existed entirely in parallel with a massively violent war that had engulfed the entire country. Stunning example of a successful state.
  
  You should get off your high horse and just try to inform yourself since you clearly have no intention of pursuing a civil conversation
  
  Lol you still haven’t answered a single question. You know you’re wrong but at least you’ve found your safe space to do so.
  
  You are deliberately hostile for no reason and expect people to answer you doubts, if you can call purposeful obtuseness that. You are an idiot who already decided to ignore all answers and if you're so curious you will find your own answers or be content in your impolite ignorance
  
  Yeah but directly before that is the community Libjerk, which is clearly the Tankies being defensive over and parodying Tankiejerk, so their belief in either anarchy or the 8th amendment is laughable at best and insulting at worst.
- lmfao
