Oh, in that case it's a Democratic Republic of the Free People. The label the government chooses for itself might not be accurate according to political science.

No, that is just another class of ownership. Whoever maintains the AI would be the ruling class. Or if we're talking AGI, there's little reason humanity should trust what humans build over what humans do.

Sorry, but I don't trust humanity. How do I know this isn't just some ploy to further enslave workers?

I find it a bit ironic that cars and traffic lights are being used as a metaphor for why anarchy won't work. Let's put aside that the example is of poor collective planning to build urban environments. Go to Vietnam and see how people drive without traffic lights, it's complete madness. But it works, and in some ways it works better than what we have because the accidents are fewer and less severe while also serving more diverse modes of traffic.

Sure, but is that how we talk about our institutions? Things I hear that buck anarchism while supporting American democracy:

  • The Constitution should be interpreted with "originalism" or at the very least venerated
  • Police sacrifice X, therefore it's okay if they do extralegal Y

I'm not saying there aren't systems of accountability that legitimize various institutions. It's that the stories we tell to legitimize an institution comes in many different flavors, and those based on authority from power/position (ie "our founding fathers were smart people") are not accepted by anarchists. Edit: Imagine how different our legal framework would be if it reflected that mentality?

There's plenty of theory to draw from, like the Cynefin Framework or Wardley Mapping. But like the left, there's no real consensus on what we ought to be doing but no shortage of opinions.

If I do, it’s uncodifiable

Things can still be codified and justified without an appeal to power. Lots of software is written that way today.

a clause that no one is allowed to use logical fallacies to defend it.

I don't understand why that would be a necessity or desired.

Then show me the Biden supporter (who isn't protesting) that wants small government like those who fly the Gadsden flag.

Them goalposts is me asking for the original receipt. Show me the Biden supporter who you claim this flag represents.

Liberate is when ecocide?

If capitalism was the reason then there would be a lot more flags in the image - including Russia. Probably has something to do with a current event....

What do you think Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) that the oil companies have been pushing for is if not a naked attempt to profit from the problem? Of course CCS will require even more oil to run, but that just means more profit!

Grass fed cattle and corn fed cattle have very different impacts on the environment. "Meatless Mondays" to me says "eat less meat" which in turn means more money for "Grass-Fed Steak Fridays".

Or just convince one billionaire that they are actually good at designing space crafts and should bring their friends along for a joy ride.
