     @rats @eris @nik nah, actual communism is unstable at anything over village size, just like free market. both lead directly to oligarchy/dictatorship

     @nik @rats @eris kinda yeh, mmmthere's a possible equilibrium in carefully balancing powers, corporations vs. government, but it's an unstable equilibrium, so has to be constantly actively managed and will end up sliding off one way or the other in the end anywaysstable equilibrium would require people becoming not human or having a non-human balancing power, like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Culture_series

     @nik @eris @rats even balancing at village scale isn't possible for other great apes, but humans can do it because primitive weaponry made it possible for the weak guy to just murder the bully when he starts being a jerk

     @rats @eris @nik @shmibs Build alternate systems.

     If a system is bad, build another one. Don't try to usurp the original; try to interop with it, and give people more choice. Where this is possible, you can do good; where it's not… you're not doing bad, at least.

     @wizzwizz4 @eris @nik @shmibs yeah my current politics are basically arising out of reform and revolution both being completely unimaginable to me and wondering how to move forward from that (basically, a sort of non-identitarian improvisational separatism or something like that)

     @rats @eris @nik @shmibs A load of intersecting narrow-domain authority structures of various scopes and scales can approximate anarchy, so long as there's a strong culture of preventing abuse-of-authority.

     When there's the possibility of an authority-abuser shutting down prevention-of-authority-abuse, your system is going down.

     @shmibs @rats @eris @nik Then be crafty. Work from the shadows, or try another angle, or just be legally unstompable (and hope they don't get the law changed). What humans have built, humans can unbuild – this will remain true while bureaucracies are made of humans.
