    We need a robust democracy with strong regulation, not a lack of structure in our society.

      This. Anarchism is not the way, democratic control is.

      Structurelessness only leads to tyranny of another kind. Read Jo Freeman’s thoughts on this concept:

          You can debate anything if you’re stupid enough.

          Agreed. Essentially the big reason many people support the idea of a government is simply because it is an effective deferral of responsibility for certain issues. The most effective example is unironically the existence of the government “benefit”.

        Yeah so we have a robust system of checks and balances, strong regulation and systemic processes to discourage corruption. For example, if you are in your role due to a public election or representing a public body and you are found to have taken bribes you have to serve 20 years in prison and lose all entitlements associated with your office including pensions.

            This isn’t a reality, I’m saying the system could work if.
