Why do you believe in it, do you approve it in theory or also in practice? I think a lot of people approve of anarchism in theory but rejects the possibility of it to be put in practice unless we live in an utopia… which I don’t think we do, unfortunately. Maybe techno-anarchism would be more practical? Technology is such badly regulated and ordinary people are punished harsher than corporate so I really think techno-anarchism deserves a lot more attention (not saying anarchism itself doesn’t) I see a lot of people here are more knowledgeable than me so don’t take my word so seriously, maybe I shouldn’t be expressing my idiot thoughts on it, or maybe just embrace it and ask regardless of any shame I might get.

I’m not trying to be mean to anyone, just genuinely wanted to discuss with whoever is willing to chip in on the topic.

    While this is true, homogeneous culture combined with comparatively harsh conditions throughout Scandinavia along with the typical standing armies that would be difficult to maintain under an anarchic coalition or syndicate certainly play a role. I think the world has a lot to learn from the Nordic models, but am skeptical about their long-term viability as American hegemony sunsets.

      Well, Finland isn’t scandinavian though, but I do get your point. However, they do benefit from some worries to lessen so they can focus in other priorities, not justifying it but there is a silver lining, I agree once they should become more independent would somehow be better but it’s not like they ain’t countries who has a dark past of going through wars because of the SS and Soviet Union, Nordic and Balkan countries share that in common hence why I hardly think they’ll become more independent unless it’s to “replace” with European hegemony if Europe stops relying on USA. Finland, for example, was politically neutral for decades til recently now increasing their reliance on the USA just as the rest of Europe, wars really postpone the ability of a large sum of countries ability on becoming more independent. A world withour war? I wish, but that’ll stay a wishful thought. List of wars since World War Ii:
