RE: Visions of a Voluntary World (A primer on Voluntaryist/anarchist thought).
To have the true voluntary way... The system that keeps everything chained by rule of.. Etc. Now for thousands of years, how does on break free from it 100%? Humans and even animals have superiors above others (pack leaders), it seems this behavior and group status thinking is in our biology. In today's world it seems you must go along for your survival, else you will have nothing. In how far should we take this voluntarist approach and way of thinking? I find it hard taking it to this level logically, because I'm so stuck and used to this way of living, from birth programmed.
Just some questions, that you could take as rhetorical questions.
Do you think slavery is the normal natural state because people ought to be slaves naturally?
How about those who don't want to be slaves, are they going against the laws of nature, according to you because people are meant to be slaves of a group of masters?
And because you and other people say it's biology, do you think I or others (voluntayists) should just accept our slavery because you and other people say so?
Do you see that it is not possible to convince an voluntayist ;) that he or she should just accept his or her slavery?
Peace
Edit
That is totally up to you in how far you take that approach. It's your choice and I guess choice, in a way, is what differentiates us, in at least one way, from animals.
To address this point, Voluntaryism is not opposed to the presence of superiors or leaders, but coercive, violent, non-consensually accepted superiors and leaders.
I think it should be taken all the way as slavery is immoral.
I see in easy words don't abuse others and be a dick :p. You make it sound complicated with your intelligence of words though. Or my English just lacks with tricky words here and there.
