It's really strange to me that an anarchist would spend any amount of energy trying to convince anyone not to vote. If the argument is that the tiny amount of time/energy spent voting a few times per year is somehow detrimental to one's ability to engage in direct action, then couldn't we also say that your time/energy would be better spent on direct action than spreading anti-voting memes and arguing with people about voting? It also feels borderline suspicious that these anti-voting memes are always being pushed right before a major election in the United States.

I joined this instance because I wanted a horizontally organized, anarchist-friendly place to hang out, but this is just really turning me off from this place.

I literally don't know who you're talking to anymore. Who is "you lot"? You're arguing with a group of people you invented in your mind.

Now I think you might be a troll.

Is this comment implying that ICE will soon be under control of Democrats, which are being conflated with "the left", and therefore these weapons will soon be under control of "the left"? Because if so, I disagree for many reasons.

I can confidently say that anyone who would support an armed working class uprising could not care less if it would result in the cancelation of a few shows, and certainly not the shows you mentioned. I think you have created a mental image of some stereotypical "liberal/leftist" that does not actually exist in reality, and certainly does not represent the person whose comment you replied to.

Most people are not yet materially desperate enough to risk going to prison and ruining their lives.

What do either of those shows have to do with the comment you're replying to?

Yeah, it seems easily fixed. Also, instantly recallable delegates are a feature of anarchist systems, which representative democracy should learn from.

For the record, circumcision on children (without a medical necessity) should absolutely be illegal.

Do you have more info on how the company is structured? Everything I can find on their site just says it's "employee-owned", but I don't know what that means.

Maybe they already have an iphone and are trying to make good use of it.

Just quickly skimming the article you linked, I'm not seeing evidence that wikipedia is "shit", just that there have been many attempts by governments and other powerful people to influence its content, which shouldn't be surprising to anyone given how popular it is. Are there examples you could point to of those attempts being successful? (Including particular examples you want to highlight in that article; again I only skimmed it on a small screen.)

It also seems strange to link to a wikipedia article to support the claim that wikipedia is shit.
