      Those who seek power over others don’t deserve it.

      This is a fundamental truth.

      The solution is in the creation of democratic structures that are tyranny-resistant. Anarcho-syndicalism is one good option. Following in the work the Kurds of Northern Syria did in Rojava is even better. Democratic Confederalism is the model we need going into the future of climate change catastrophes. It is, quite simply, the best model we have at the moment, and it is astoundingly well-tested.

      For the record, I consider myself solidly post-Left, which traditionally has disagreed quite a bit with Bookchin. But I give a shit about results and Rojava demonstrated efficacy.

      This guy didn’t just naturally rise to power, the US put him there. He was handpicked by Yeltsin and Bill Clinton to be the premier of the new Russian Federation. We made him, he was our guy.
