Nice to see you on anarchist.nexus Sunshine :)

I wonder if there’s anything like this in Switzerland/Austria/France

I think this all very much depends on how exactly you define a state.

But I’d push back on the idea anarchist self organisation takes more effort than states. I don’t think it does. Just that the effort used to uphold states has been formalised and territorialised as “jobs” and sometimes just “culture”.

Yes exactly. Plus he was literally a socialist. I think I’d enjoy chatting with him the most.

The market would be freer if it wasn’t dominated by a couple capitalist megacorpos. So nationalisation doesn’t mean less freedom, although neolib propaganda would love you to think so.

Yeah this sounds more like Zižek

The argentine government could focus their money on those struggling in poverty isntead of being mafia for capital.

Interesting. I think this it’s going down piece might be a good companion to the Jacobin perspective.

Can someone volunteer to give that website a mobile compatible viewing mode. It would make it far more accessible.

(I’d theoretically love to join your reading but the extent of my chronic illness means it’s very unlikely I’d be able to keep up fully. I’d love to jump in and out if that’s possible tho :))
