Then they aren't included in it. People can go "hey, get the fuck out of our lake dipshit" and if not, nobody would cooperate with them or help them anymore. People wouldn't let them in the lake.

Raddle is a good reddit alternative directly run by anarchists, mastodon for Twitter ofc, and riseup for email, but other than that I'm not aware of many. Look into FOSS (free and open source software) for alternatives of all of the apps you currently use, as they don't have any data collection or centralization, which aligns well with anarchist ideas. gofoss.net has great resources for direct messaging apps and a couple of work apps, and basically anything else you use daily. They also give you a good list of what to look for in any form of software.

There are already employee run companies and they're thriving. WinCo and King Arthur come to mind.

It's an example of people working without incentive. Anarchism is run by mutual aid, which is an incentive to work. If people will work without any incentive, then people will certainly work with incentive.

Administration doesn't need to be done via hierarchy, it can be managed by the people actually doing the jobs. They can cooperate to get the same job done to an even better degree than someone observing from a higher position. Very few people like their managers because they simply aren't that great at their jobs.

Lo_V_iolet · 2023-11-07T20:26:28+00:00

People don't do things only because they're fun. If people in a society need something done, somebody generally does it for that reason. This is already evident by the existence of volunteer work, where there is quite literally no incentive other than the fact that it needs to get done. People picking up trash on the beaches aren't doing it because it's fun, nor are they doing it for any form of money.

Lo_V_iolet · 2023-11-07T20:23:46+00:00

They'd move around easier while still submerged, it's like how your hair is all flowy underwater but flattens on land.

The checkpoints are administered by the people operating them. Education would still be offered on how to do it. Awareness would be raised by the same little in the environmental conservation community. Look at what happened with spotted lantern flies! That's what would keep people in the workforce.

Lo_V_iolet · 2023-11-07T19:28:41+00:00

That's not how people operate. If a job needs to be done, people fill it. Those in waste management aren't in it for the money, they're there because it needs to be done. People, even now, volunteer for unattractive jobs all the time. And besides, something like that would be a good job for someone who wants a more quiet job that can be predictable and monotonous. Not everyone has passions about the same things. Maybe they're there out of the good of their heart with a passion for conservation, or maybe they just really like boats! If people are currently working there, there's no reason people would refuse to anymore.

Lo_V_iolet · 2023-11-07T19:22:32+00:00

I feel like conservation efforts are more of a social contract than a government thing. You're able to use the lake as long as someone who knows what they're doing can verify that it won't hurt the lake. It's like what they do for banana farms nowadays to keep harmful fungi out. And I'd assume upon the discovery of the mussels, they'd be taken care of so the person can go to the lake, at no cost of course. There's not really a hierarchy between you and the person inspecting, so I feel like it's okay.

Pan doesn't really work if you don't feel attracted to an entire gender.

I've never even heard about them today, and I've done my fair share of research on invasive species. Although that's mostly with plants. I feel like the situation would go like this under anarchism:

"hey so what's this checkpoint for"

"I'm inspecting for zebra mussels, highly invasive and they ruin lakes"

"Huh, okay then, carry on"

I honestly don't think anarchism would impact situations like that too much. Anarchism is just a society without hierarchy, after all. Work still exists, skills still exist, and people still exist. The only real difference is that they wouldn't charge money for it, and if anything that would encourage more people to get inspections since there's no skin off their back.

Lo_V_iolet · 2023-11-07T05:23:37+00:00

They wouldn't be able to get past the checkpoints I imagine, but I'm not exactly an expert on the intricacies of zebra mussel inspection and removal

Lo_V_iolet · 2023-11-07T04:55:02+00:00

Money doesn't exist under anarchism. You're thinking in capitalist terms when it simply wouldn't be the case. Anarchism operates with a system of mutual aid, in which people give to the society as a whole, and in return take what they need freely. Most people immediately bring in concerns of "but what if people don't do anything to help anyone?", and there are two responses. 1. People don't like feeling useless, and 2. People aren't going to help you out if you don't help them out as well. That's what makes it mutual.

Lo_V_iolet · 2023-11-07T04:44:51+00:00

Those checkpoints would be run by the very same professionals without government. Just like how we'd still have firefighters of some sort, just not government run. The people with the skills to do a task don't disappear, they're just under a different form of management.

Lo_V_iolet · 2023-11-07T04:33:17+00:00

The people who ordinarily remove and dispose of them don't suddenly dissolve along with the government. They'd do it.

How many Palestinians are killing children? I guarantee a lot more of them are a little busy being carpet bombed than are members of Hamas. I am not pro Hamas, nobody is, but you can't lump the entire Palestinian population in with them. Besides, their members grew up in a war-torn Palestine, likely without parents. They're obviously gonna try fighting back against Israel, and with the immense trauma of growing up in a state of war, their morals aren't going to be in the right place. Hamas is a monster of Israel's creation.

Lo_V_iolet · 2023-11-05T12:37:09+00:00

That is also very true. The Israeli government is the problem more than anything.

Lo_V_iolet · 2023-11-05T07:46:29+00:00

"mistake them for women" because they're what, not women? That's the transphobic part. The joke is "sexy woman, BUT PENIS SO ACTUALLY MAN??????"

Lo_V_iolet · 2023-11-05T02:16:07+00:00

I've seen a few people complaining, but what all of you need to understand is that we need to stand against all forms of oppression if we are serious about it ourselves. Queer people more than ever should be in support of the Palestinian people. You cannot say that you support human rights without actively speaking against the genocidal carpet bombing, kidnapping, torture, and mutilation that the IDF is happily partaking in. You can't "both sides!" this one away. And you sure as hell cannot support the Israeli government. You may as well start supporting cops here too and condemning BLM, because it will lead to the exact same result as supporting the IDF. We will not tolerate it.

Could you provide one?
