Are you like one of those people who thinks there are 100 different kinds of death metal? Man all that stuff is the same.
They’re like Kim Jong Un. They don’t take shits.
Not all forms of Anarchism are the same especially concerning my variation. The closest thing you could categorize me under would be a Stirnerite.
What does that do to create all these categories out of thin air? Is there some utility in that?
Differences of beliefs and perceptions I believe.
Well, any 2 things are always going to be different. But what if they’re more similar to one another than they are to any other things? Either way, I don’t see what it helps to make such fine distinctions as the one we’re talking about here. You both want anarchy, just in different ways at different times. That’s closer than if one of you were a banker.
Anyone else a Black Adder fan?
Ha: Not all forms of Anarchism are the same especially concerning my variation. The closest thing you could categorize me under would be a Stirnerite.

K: I should have guessed. “Stirnerites” believers are all about their ego and nothing else.
There is nothing else outside of their ego, which is what a 2 year olds believes.
Ego, ego, ego, ego and some ego, and that is all there is to the 'Stirnerites" belief system.
Their own ego.
Kropotkin
K: as I have stated, I am no longer a anarchist because it is a philosophy
which will come to pass in the future.
Kropotkin
Gross oversimplification.
What does that even mean?
K: as I have stated, I have studied anarchism for years and no, it isn’t a gross oversimplification.
All stirner offer is the ego and nothing more. He wraps it up pretty like, but yah, it is all about
the ego.
Kropotkin
K: ok, I will dumb this down for you. I am no longer anarchist… Still with me,
as it will occur in the future, still there…, a future a long time from now.
ok, any really big words feel free to look them up.
Kropotkin
He is a full fledged, Hillary trumpeting Fascist now.
Human beings are inherently selfish and egotistical so for me any kind of Anarchism acknowledging such is valid by me.
Johann Kaspur Schmidt was pretty much on point with all of that.
That makes sense. It suits him really.
He obviously learned nothing from all the Anarchist philosophies that he supposedly read.
Also, can we all fucking stick to the original subject of the thread now?
Only if you stop being a closeted socialist, like you are in this thread, and stick to Anarchism.
Agreed?
Socialist? Please explain that.
When you bitch about capitalism, you don’t take a anarchist stance, but a socialist one for what they “should” be doing (anarchist my ass), and it’s always socialist. So you get angry and bitchy, and fall back into your lifestyle, which is anarcho-primitivist at face value, but your beliefs are very clearly socialist (if you dropped the anger, it be nearly Emerson in your cabin). Your always holding out that depressed hope for a socialist handout from the very big brother your raving against.
Its no different for Kropotkin. He threatens war and violence, a throwback from his socialist days, despite being in a wheelchair and deft (from here say)… but he isn’t in the closet regarding his socialist leanings. He grew up a bit from the days when he would live for attacking a idea he thought was purely imaginary, realizing the argument was rather pointless. Not fully, he still does it from time to time, but he is showing a level of maturity you haven’t reached yet. Your rather immature in your positions. Your not Max Stirner material anymore, it’s just comfortable to identify with the rebellious empowerment you get from it when your plans for hooking onto socialism backfires like a mother fucker. You say your a atheist, but you got more faith than the Pope in the very things you tread on, and everyone has seen it for a long time.
Question is, once you are sitting out by a fire one day, and the last of your resistance gives way to admitting this, what kind of socialism will you embrace? Marx was a build on Stirner, but not all go that way. Are you going to be one of the black clad guys burning American flags outside of NAFTA and WTO events? March for social justice and get tear gassed and arrested? Emigrate to Canada? It is a unknown. Peter Kropotkin is one possibility, he is very much a future version of yourself, but not the only possibility. We all see it coming. Your always shocked "Is this what you think? Is this what you see? How little you understand!
Your a closeted socialist. I almost never agree with Kro on anything, but this one he is dead on. You’re a socialist, dragging ass pretending to be a anarchist still. Your not fighting for statelessness, your bitching about the lack of a progressive state. The two view points are incompatible. I had to leave Cynicism and enter Stoicism for similar reasons… came to a realization I was a philosopher of the state as much as the independent individual (anarchism is default bootleg Cynic philosophy).
Stoic doesn’t equal Socialism, but Joker now does (your far more socialist than me). Your more or less on the cusp of it, you will inevitable drop the bullshit and embrace it, just figure it will be in a few years. Your living in the closet.
