I'm not saying anarchist capitalism is authoritarian, I'm saying it has zero percent to do with anarchism. Totally mutually exclusive subjects and oxymoronic.

I think any idea that can help us discuss things well, will be tainted by propagandists that want us arguing and confused. Like the creation of ancaps or co-option of libertarians.

For that thing you linked. It's certainly an interesting way to look at it and will help people learn more and figure stuff out. I at some point reduced down all the higher level issues to lower level ones and then collapsed it into Anarchism. In my head most issues are resolved and i have proof of work, but remembering and articulating for other people can be pretty rough.

The last 3 axes I think are really just the authoritarian scale, the first axis is vaguely left/right wing anti-Capitalism vs Capitalism which also is the authoritarian scale in a sense.

Yeah I agree there's no good way to simplify complex subjects. Anyways have a good night it was nice having a real discussion that didn't devolve into tribalism and name calling! Keep on being an awesome non authoritarian person!

I ate too many mushrooms to properly reply anymore.

The closest I can get a simplification that is legit is anarchy vs totalitarianism. But yeah, can't oversimplify.

Thanks for being awesome too :D I enjoyed the convo and hope you enjoy your shrooms(lucky you).
