Anarchy is very cool, until someone has the wrong opinion.

    you’re applying this to an internet community that has no real world interaction as a group. i think it’s okay to be authoritarian on your own channel lol.

      Absolutely. But don’t pretend to be an anarchist then. Be actually honest about your views and people may then (as per anarchist thought) choose for themselves if they want to get on board with that or not.

        i don’t see those as incompatible. you can be an anarchist and very controlling over your own online space.

          Again, as long as you’re very explicit about it. But don’t call it an anarchist space. It’s then a space, run by an anarchist, that doesn’t follow the rules of anarchism.

            tell me you’ve never been in a non-internet anarchist space without telling me 😂

            (hint: offline anarchist bars tend not to tolerate fascists either)

            rules of anarchism

            😭

            (this is a bit, right?)

              Enforcing regulation and enforcing one’s own personal views are two different things. This entire convo is supposed to focus on the latter, not confuse them with each other.
