@Normie Living on land tends to assume that you're allowing yourself to be subjected to the laws of your local government, which is what I'm trying to circumvent for the sake of functional anarchism.


That's because people have always lived only on land though. If living on water became the norm instead, there's no reason to believe that current practices and institutions wouldn't be carried over accordingly, for similar reasons and in a similar way. Now, if this was only a small community of a few thousand people at most floating around doing this, considered irrelevant wackos by the landlubbers, then maybe you could get away with it and just trade with/buy from land dwellers without being subject to any government. There are some fringe people who basically do this on land already (look up Slab City if you don't know what that is). If you're wanting to organize all of humanity this way, though, that would change things quite a lot.

@Andreyich If everyone followed your method of waiting until precedents existed before even considering a potentially novel idea, we'd still be shivering as we lay naked in caves. Good thing your method wasn't and isn't universally adhered to, huh?


True, scientific heroes like you beat the ignorance from fools like me. So why don't you try an experiment and prove me wrong. Naturally via the scientific method.

Not much talk of Iran going on here and how the people are openly revolting against their oppressive government that has since killed a few of them for their resistance, or let alone what a real resistance looks like or how widespread it is. One can only hope this potential revolution against the Islamic Republic is mostly bloodless, but the positive is that some portions of its military have turned against the regime and are actively willing to fight for the people, including the Revolutionary Guard. Nevertheless, the Iranian people are getting the message direct from the United States that they are not being ignored, to the point the Iranian government has shutdown the majority of the internet to eliminate opposition communication.

If portions of the military have joined the opposition in Iran, that's a really good sign. That is a big factor in determining the success or failure of these things, how loyal the military is to the regime and how willing it is to kill its countrymen to protect said regime. Even if it succeeds, though, then there is the question of what will come next, and will it be any better.

@Normie, some more evidence that this is a revolution by the people and likely not a military backed coup. Some other oddities are that there is a lot of unmarked air traffic departing airspace too; important people loyal to the state who likely do not feel like being beheadedor hung is my guess. Some other reporting on the ground says the military is arming militia units in response to others carrying out the massacres against civilians. Potentially major event here to support those reports.

@catchamber I really don't get why you like to spout impertinent bullshit, but I'm used to it from you. If you aren't willing to prove such a thing is possible then I'm afraid you're the lazy one, for the burden of proof that such an absurd thing is possible is on you. When you get off your ass, stop being a keyboard warrior and prove that living isolated in international waters is possible then, you can call me lazy. However for now you're just being a rather silly idiot with digital diarrhea.

@Andreyich It's more like me pointing out that you need to go back to school. Wait, nevermind, just read a free biology textbook on OpenStax, courtesy of Bill Gates and his wife.
