    Took a long time for me to realize this.

    Punk wants anarchy.

    Anarchy is only mad max if the people are pieces of shit.

    Anarchy is utopia if the people are good.

    This is why an anarchist will boot stomp a rapist or a fascist EVERY TIME.

    Don’t be a piece of shit and dont sell your soul to The Party, we don’t end up with the federal government enabling genocide.

    We get loud music, and stomp the roaches. And that’s all.

      That sounds cool af but like damn, could you imagine having trial by public opinion???

      _ just taking anarchist self regulation of acceptable behavior to the extreme for fun_

        I don’t think that justice works that way in an Anarchist System. It would rather work in a transformativ way. So it is looked how the damage is reduced for everyone while at the same time the victim as well as the abuser get protected so no lynching. I have heard that the trials of the Zapatista (“only” libertarian socialist) is espacally fair and therefore also used by outsiders.

        Not sure about the second part but yup, your first part is trial by jury without jury duty itself hanging over your head.

        Wouldn’t that be amazing, instead of some judge sending you away for 30 years for having some weed you could be freed by commonsense people rather than corrupt judges.

          It’s one of those double edged swords though. You could also be lynched for that same weed by a different group.

            Right, so no different from our current system except that our peers are going to be a much broader representation of society rather than a millionaire law school attending judge, who’s pals with the cops and probably a member of some right wing group or ideology.

            I’ll take my chances with the people over the injustice system.

      stomp the roaches

      This seems like the opposite sentiment as the OP image

        You’d think so, but Punks can invite good people because they can accept good people, and stomp fascist, rapist, racist, etc roaches without needing a grand inquisition to figure out “is it bad”.

        Most pass. But true, lots of roaches who think Trump is a golden god, or Joe is made of diamond, or priests aren’t pedophiles, or cops aren’t pedo fascists, etc. All them get stomped in the hypothetical.

          Even if you’re right, wouldn’t that mean OP is wrong? It sounds like you’re extolling the virtues of something like “performative cruelty” as a way to regulate society. The mattress seems to be saying do kindness instead of that, not that kindness is only made possible by it.
