I have so many questions, but I will limit it to one. Why are you content giving the power to defend yourself to someone else?

Cops and prisons impose hierarchy by monopolizing violets. Democratizing violets works toward destroying that hierarchy by giving everyone flowers.
Omniscience is knowing all that will happen. The rebellious angel's free-will creates a smaller God.
God is already a dictator by choosing the state of everything. Designing a chaotic system and letting it run also supports being a dictator. He designed the system. An omnipotent God is unable to escape His own designs. The rebellious angel was by design. His planning thereby is guile.
I love this comment. Thank you. Value does obfuscate the product of labor. If I pick apples and cook them, I have apple sauce. The apple sauce is mine to share as I will. Value points to some form of storage where I can exchange the apple sauce for some other product later.
I find Nozick's minimal state interesting. He seems to want to entrust violence to a state. How would such a system prevent the minimal state from forming monopolies or cartels by which the ruled give up economic and political freedom?
Woody Gutherie, Utah Phillips.... I guess I am asking what divides county from folk.
I have a lot to learn. I appreciate the insight. I listen to Aesop Rock. I remember his work being with Rhymesayers.
I agree with the music industry problems. Luckily I have found some great hip hop and country recently.
As an anarchist, voting is fine. In addition, build community and help others.
I will bite.
There are leftist that call for reform to capitalism. UBI is one such reform to help capitalism exploit fewer people. Similar reforms are minimum wage. UBI could make capitalism easier on workers.
I prefer a system that does less harm to workers by means such as the abolition of private property and the employer class. Workers should get the value of their work. They don't need an employer parasitically taking that value.
Bananas are strong together. Anarchist are working toward prefiguration. That is building a future with "no rule" inside current systems. We have to live within the current system, but we can build a better one. Working together maybe we can build a better boat.
