If anything it lowers it because centrists like all right-wingers stop caring once they're not personally affected.

So you'd rather go against a full-on right winger or fascist?

You’re up against the same police/military either way.

Do you actually think a Democrat leader would support overthrowing the state/capitalism?

Accelerationism won’t get you what you want, it just ensures authoritarians are in power no matter what. Historically, these people don’t care about redistributing squat.

Focused changed at a local level can actually bear fruit and can be scaled up. Social programs can already create an economic floor, even under our current capitalist system. For instance, Universal Basic Income implemented at a state level or federal level would solve the economic woes people encounter.

If you think your framework has any grounds of legitimacy you should be able to think of how to even make it possible on a small scale level.

What’s functionally stopping you from living on a commune on an empty dot on a map or a deserted island and making your dream of no government a reality with your peers?

What’s functionally stopping you from living on a commune on an empty dot on a map or a deserted island and making your dream of no government a reality with your peers?

the fact that under private property there is no such thing as an empty dot or a deserted island, capitalism is a totalising system and is practically inescapable but can be eroded, and that our politics as leftists are not just a vehicle for our own individual self-actualisation but about the liberation of all people?

a bunch of 'leftists' LARPing on an island are not leftists if they can afford to live on an island together and isolate themselves from the rest of the world.
