^ There it is again. The “utopian” “ignoring” thing.

Adam and I already dealt with this one in our discussion/debate. Asserting that building alternative systems and not supporting a violence-based system is “doing nothing” or “hoping it goes away” always strikes me as such a weird perspective.

I guess politicking is just another man’s “hoping it goes away” then, by that standard.

Sort:  

Refusing to be involved with the political system is implicit support for the status quo. The statists don’t want non-statists involved. That way they can just keep voting for themselves and claiming “consent.”

When non-statists are involved in the political system it is explicit discontent for the status quo. Look, nobody is telling you to vote for statists, or to stop growing your own food, or to stop creating alternative systems. Do all of those things! And also be involved with the political process. Fight them at every opportunity.

Refusing to be involved with the political system is implicit support for the status quo.

With the political system as the status quo, this is one of the most logically self-detonating statements one could make.

The old parties are the status quo. Someone running on the platform of dissolving the system is not.

Adam has said that even if there were a 90% majority of anarchists united in non-compliance, the entrenched 10% of the state would still point guns and keep the state in existence.

Why is it that he expects a majority of people involved in political action not to have those same guns pointed at them?

The status quo political system (which Adam will use) will not end itself by its own mechanisms. It is an immoral system built and dependent upon violence. But they will magically let him win and dissolve the Fed?
