    Nothing makes me more skeptical of anarchism than being told I’d have to rely on my local community.

      Sounds like you need to work on improving your local community.

      Where I am in Melbourne, we’re a large and diverse group of people, there are constant events and community acitivities, a large co-op garden is just down the hill from me, at the park nearby there’s frequently food trucks helping the poor/homeless.

      It’s not perfect, but give me more of that over Albanese and his genocidal enabling, Trump buddy-ness any day. I’d rather see my taxes/work go towards building this up than subsiding a mining company.

        Mmm maybe i should work on it, perhaps through a hierarchical structure that works to organise people, bring out their best and simplify interactions with other communities?

          Or instead of trying to have someone be above the others and dictate to them, you could just work together with them for the betterment of your community 🤷

              No.

              Empowering everyone to work together would help with that.

              Giving everyone a voice and a chance to meet and talk together to work out the how they would like a better community to look would help with that.

              Ordering people around will only give you exactly what you already have as I assume you live in a LGA, with a hierarchical structure already, no?
