@amerika @dcc

How does that comport with what you said, then?

> There are going to be leaders.

> Any society without leaders will quickly become slaves to one with leaders.

The second part is entirely obviated by the first.

@amerika @IcyGrillz @truthbait

> However voluntarism breaks down with the first bad actor.

I don't think that's true, otherwise businesses couldn't exist.

You're not *forced* to work for a company to accomplish mutually beneficial goals, exchanging your time for just compensation.

In any sufficiently large business, there will always be at LEAST one bad actor.

But those businesses still exist. They're simply forced by the State to outsource violence, when required, to the State.

@amerika I don't claim people or organizations are infallible, and once again the same argument could be made against Monarchy, which under the same condition would likely produce much more brutal and violent result.

I agree with you that the State's removal of freedom of association (forced diversification) has led to undesirable outcomes.

But I remain unconvinced that Monarchy is superior to abolition of the State.

@amerika @IcyGrillz @truthbait You and I differ in that I think the State itself is the problem, but I agree that State forced diversification produces issues that should be quite apparent to anyone who doesn't have their head up their ass.

Do you think the State should actively oppose diversification, or do you think that the State has no right to interfere (or exist at all), therefore allowing people freedom of association?

@amerika @IcyGrillz @truthbait I'd prefer Monarchy to America's current sham of a Government, at least I wouldn't be psyopped at every waking moment, and you'd know whose head to pike, but I don't accept that any man has non-consensual dominion over another.

I don't oppose voluntary organizations formed on legitimate consent, but fundamentally I see no difference between Monarchy and Kleptocracy, except that Kleptocracy is more "efficient".

@amerika @IcyGrillz @truthbait

> This assumes that all men are equal in reason

I don't think that's relevant. People have the natural right of freedom of association, regardless of how retarded they may be.

> Voluntarism leads to democracy

I could say the same of Monarchy. Perhaps "representational government" would be more accurate, but you get my point. Post hoc ergo propter hoc.

The political zeitgeist is always in a state of flux because it's a product of people alive at the time.

@mac_ack @NoBeret

Lol, what do you think?

Just scroll through my profile you lazy shit.

I'm about done entertaining the Anime PFP Fed Defense Force.

@mac_ack @NoBeret I'm an anarchist and make fun of Con-Cons all the time. You're barking up the wrong tree.

@mac_ack @NoBeret

From their website "Manifesto":

> To form a new and just State, we must...

If you think that these retards aren't *heavily* infiltrated by CIs and probably payroll agents too, then you're either a complete retard or you glow in the dark as much as these fags

@mac_ack @NoBeret do you really think that this group is NOT heavily infiltrated by the Feds? If you genuinely believe that, you vastly underestimate the power of the State.

@NoBeret I humor the anime PFPs sometimes.

@NoBeret it is, but the Fed Parade marched a day or so ago, hence why they’re top of mind.

@NoBeret They need the navy shirts, white balaclavas, sunglasses, and FBI credentials hanging out of the back pocket

If this doesn't work I'm going to look like an idiot.

Actually, I'll probably look like an idiot either way.

Such is life.

@yukiame I don’t obsessively fantasize about hooking up with flat-cheated European biker chicks because I’m not a sad forever-alone British man who makes the majority of his online presence about sniffing bike seats.

So no, I cannot name them. And I’m sure, present company excluded, nobody else here can either.

@graf @yukiame this is true. Half point awarded.

Concrete specs:

2 images.

A SMALL (32x32) favicon (replacing the Mastodon "M" as this website's "logo"), which will also be added as an emoji.

A LARGE ~2:1 image (to replace this default image: https://noauthority.social/packs/media/images/preview-6399aebd96ccf025654e2977454f168f.png)

They don't have to be the "same" image.

The SMALL image MUST be recognizable when scaled down to 32x32, but should be submitted as a higher resolution (minimum 512x512).

@Faelyn successive votes until there is only 1 left, ex:

@Richard nah, full creative license. I'll probably know "it" when I see it (though I'll probably put it up for a vote anyway), but I'm too untalented to give artistic guidance.

@Richard nope. Simplicity is probably better, mainly because it'll probably eventually be shrunken down to a 32x32 emoji, so larger is better.
