Why do you believe in it, do you approve it in theory or also in practice? I think a lot of people approve of anarchism in theory but rejects the possibility of it to be put in practice unless we live in an utopia… which I don’t think we do, unfortunately. Maybe techno-anarchism would be more practical? Technology is such badly regulated and ordinary people are punished harsher than corporate so I really think techno-anarchism deserves a lot more attention (not saying anarchism itself doesn’t) I see a lot of people here are more knowledgeable than me so don’t take my word so seriously, maybe I shouldn’t be expressing my idiot thoughts on it, or maybe just embrace it and ask regardless of any shame I might get.

I’m not trying to be mean to anyone, just genuinely wanted to discuss with whoever is willing to chip in on the topic.

    Finland gave away land to Russia to keep peace and they never asked for it back, Sweden could still be an empire but it isn’t, they’re not nuclead states but they are not 3rd world country either, in fact, their political crisis seem like a joke when you compare to how the rest of the world is when they are in the midst of a political crisis I think Nordic countries are a lot better to debate when it comes to this than what UK, Portugal, US, Germany, France, Russia, China has been doing for pretty long or used to, they definitely set the bar really low so every argument against state seem even enraging, rightfully

    I could just being biased so don’t take it any of my say as a good point, I just want to discuss in regards to it, you do have good points

      While this is true, homogeneous culture combined with comparatively harsh conditions throughout Scandinavia along with the typical standing armies that would be difficult to maintain under an anarchic coalition or syndicate certainly play a role. I think the world has a lot to learn from the Nordic models, but am skeptical about their long-term viability as American hegemony sunsets.
