RE: A practical problem for the Anarchist and New Age Voluntarists (and any other starry-eyed idealist). (featuring @vuyusile as author)
These are all interesting points that I want to consider and weigh further. It does seem to me that we are sliding too easily into incomparables (if there is such a word) in some of our debates e.g. leadership vs innovation; enforcement vs state compulsion.
There are some brands of survival-of-the-fittest political organisation that are as dehumanising and violent as almost anything even bad states can throw at us.
The thing is that in a free society, there can only be violent and dehumanising organisations if people agree to live on them, and i really doubt this kind of political organization would really survive on a free society, the thing is that on a real free market bad ideas tend to die and only those who serve humanity survive because...people are not really willing to pay and negotiate with anyone that will do them harm, there can be scammers but they should not survive very long if you have an efficient justice system that only a free market can provide
Edit: about the "incomparables" boy you cant imagine the kind of correlations we can make talking about this, and sometimes this correlations DO mean causation
