I see you're not actually interested in exploring these ideas, just insisting they won't work with bad faith questions.

People like you are why landlords still exist.

Bad faith questions like "why does Kropotkin assume what he assumes." Sure. You're like a religious zealot, dodging around the tough questions deservedly asked of your text and blaming naysayers for the evil in the world.

It's pretty apparent your questions aren't in good faith, or you wouldn't be so combative. It's clear you're not actually interested in answers, just in getting a "gotcha," which is pretty lame. Also, I wouldn't call any of the questions you've asked actually tough, because they're almost all the first, second, or third questions he typically answers in the book. They're fair questions, for sure, but they're the ones Kropotkin anticipates while you're reading, which is part of the fun of reading Kropotkin.

Then you go on to completely mischaracterize his view of the Paris Commune based on a single chapter of his book, while also insulting people who call you out. It's totally cool if you disagree and don't like Kropotkin's ideas -- I mean the dude wasn't right about everything. But you're just being a dick about it, sorry to say.

If you don't like "combative" questions about your prescriptions for the entire social structure of the world, then do us all a favor and stop interacting with people who have an iota of skepticism towards them. Stick to your own bubble instead of moralizing about how we wouldn't have landlords if people would just stop challenging you. And no, Kropotkin doesn't answer what I asked regarding the organization of housing. He quite literally just claims that workers are inherently unselfish and "volunteers" will rationally alot it according to need.
