RE: What a joke
In a gift economy, the exchange isn't even trade. It's a asymmetrical exchange with a loose, non-binding, informal expectation that the other person will return the favor. It's not a contract or trade, but a favor with expectation of reciprocation. That's not the same thing as a market.
It looks like you are wrong here, to be quite honest. Are you sure you are debating with an open mind and an open heart? It seems like you are trying very hard to redefine terms, or use incredibly specific definitions, rather than actually comprehend the truth of the issue at hand. I recommend you look at this with new eyes. You are clearly wearing the lenses of indoctrination: Visible from outside you, but never from your point of view.
nice way to attack a person and not an argument lol
If you throw down your sword of words, then I will not be shy about puncturing your heart. If you are the one who tries to silence people, then you are what you say you are: A fascist tyrant and an authoritarian oppressor.
You are the enemy of freedom.
Change your ways and you will change your alignment. Then our argument will turn into a round of beer and friendly cheer.
"A fascist tyrant and an authoritarian oppressor."
Actually I am the largest enemy of fascism there is, the ideology fascism was born to suppress, anarchy and it's extension: socialism
Do you listen to fascists when they speak?
you can't beat fascism by just ignoring it, you can't give them any platform what-so-ever. Especially since they are already in power lmao. Anybody who defends fascists is a fascist. It's as simple as that.
you are a joke
I think we both write for the readers, and not each other here. It is not you who I hope to convince. It is someone reading this, someone who is less involved, and doesn't feel like they have to be right or wrong in this situation. They can just observe.
When I attack, you feel pressure, yes? Well, you've struck the first blow, so I am only defending myself. You have rung the bell of oppression by playing the "no platform for _______" card.
The idea of removing speech from your enemy is a wicked thing to do. If I have an enemy to defeat, I at least want to hear their cries and pathetic insults as they run. After all: What if they are right? What if the words they speak are so wise and persuasive that the only way to win against them is to mute them?
That is the implication here. If I hear the ideas of your enemy, I might be convinced, yes? Is that how it is? Is that your fear? Your fears speak volumes, so I advocate for courage over fear.
Knowledge over ignorance.
In a battle of words, muting the enemy is cheating, and a dishonorable tactic, and I will never condone it. Not for me, not for you, and not for them. You are behaving without honor, and that is seriously troublesome.
I recommend you right yourself, and remember what it is like to walk proudly. If you are going to insult me, at least be subtle about it, and a bit clever too. The readers will not enjoy your tasteless insults, and you will lose another round against me.
If you have free speech guaranteed, then even if they win, you can still fight back in the future. But chains wrapped around your mouth can take awhile to rust, so I'd prefer that they never appear in the first place.
If you truly wish to implement the precedent of "No platform for my enemy," then it'd be quite troublesome for you if it was implemented against your political faction. That's why I recommend a healthy defense of free speech.
Both sides can continue their fight for whatever silly things they "believe" in, if they both can speak freely. Foolish humans. A heretical kitten really is the fool for ever engaging these humans over their little political beliefs.
But still, these little animal growls humans make can be quite ferocious if they can write or speak well.
Here is a perfect illustration by the left, when they are defeated by words..

...or memes, rather lmao!
It's attacking a indoctrinated perspective, not the person...
followed.
Sane people are nice..
"Social Democracy, Left-Libertarianism"
not sure your bio adds up. Although I agree with your points here overall, although you should probably not bother talking to fascists
You know, it is entirely possible to do social democracy within an anarchist framework. I'm sceptical of full anarchism, but left-libertarian ideas are mostly on point.

social democracy is capitalism smh. It's a right of center ideology
Social democracy was originally a socialist ideology. In fact, it was basically Marxist but with a democratic socialist basis. Thus, there was Fabian Socialism, Lange-Lerner model, etc. The Nordic model, non-socialist, variety of social democracy arose from the Revisionist Marxism of Eduard Bernstein, because it was believed that taxation and redistribution could be an analogue for socialism rendering real socialism unnecessary.

it was not a socialist ideology, they worked with socialists for a time until they betrayed us and joined back with the capitalists. Their goal was never a massive change in society smh. Just welfare capitalism
