Teenagers have had broccoli hair for the past 5 years. It's boring. Invent a new fad already, I want a new thing to make fun of

Indigenous anarchists aren't all dead. You don't have to go back in time. You can go talk to them today. You can read modern indigenous communist theory.

Please, I am begging you to read theory. Go to Library Genesis and download Kayanerenko;wa. Its free, it's easy.

Then why can't you imagine a society that practices indigenous anarchism with advanced technology? It just kinda seems like you don't think tribespeople can be smart.

Why is it you think we have to abandon all our modern technology in order to invent the technology of communism?

If I told you the Romans had really good concrete and we should recreate the recipe, would you argue that we can't make Roman concrete because it would require switching our guns for gladii and our tractors for oxen? That's ridiculous.

Instead of fumbling around in the dark with only two centuries of failed attempts, you should learn from the millennia of success that has already been achieved.

Do you like Iain M Banks? I love his fiction. Earlier we were talking about how Marx failed to imagine a better society and work back from it. So let's talk about imagination. Banks has a great one. His science fiction series The Culture is about an anarchist society in space, with a technology level far beyond even Star Trek.

I chose my name based on Dune. I think the Fremen are really interesting. In Dune, the Harkonens make the mistake of thinking tribal societies are simple. And then Muad'dib kicks their asses. Dune is about space anarchists struggling. But I actually like The Culture better, because it's about space anarchists succeeding.

You don't seem to want an anarchist society. You can't imagine one with advanced technology and manufacturing. Since your failure is imagination, I think you need fiction. Read Iain Banks. The Player Of Games is a good entry point to the series.

Humans organize in manners most efficient for their conditions

That's ridiculous. Communism is way more efficient for our current level of development than capitalism, yet we're doing capitalism. I don't want to hear you argue capitalism is most efficient in the 21st century, it's not. We've got homelessness, poverty, climate change, genocide, planned obsolescence.... Capitalism stinks. Quit defending it.

I don't have any critiques against AES. You're the one who wants to argue that ACKSHUALLY, all the socialist societies I mentioned aren't real communism. What's your problem with AES?

You're parroting some racist ass noble savage bullshit right now. Tribal societies weren't communist because they were too dumb to create advanced societies. They were communist because they were smart enough to pick the most efficient economic system in the harshest conditions. It wasn't an accident, it was the result of millennia of hard work and careful thought. This work is universally applicable. You just don't want to listen to brown people telling you how to run an economy.

But it hasn't. People trying to implement Marx keep getting their movements hijacked by capitalists like Stalin and Xi. Marxists can't defend their societies against capitalists.

Anarchists derive our ideas from 60,000 years of history. We have successful movements to draw our ideas from. We follow the example of actually existing communism.
