It's hardly ever used by anyone, but it's an open-source alternative to YouTube. It has several instances and whatnot, but I wonder if anyone here has used it.

Such a shame because I wish people gave PeerTube a chance. Now, it's apparently overrun by absolute loons.

There is no central authority or government. Like I said, you don't need authorities to build houses. If everyone can work together and craft proper resources for their communities, then everyone has equal opportunities to having goods and services.

Anarchism is about mutual aid at an equal level. Every politician counts as a ruler to some degree and we need none of those.

No, not at all. Communism is about publicly owned resources, not necessarily rulers. Communities could work together and have equal opportunities for housing, food, etc.

One of many reasons why I'm an anarcho-communist and not authoritarian communist.

Edit: no, it's anarcho-communism is not an oxymoron; it's about everyone communally working together and owning their resources without any sort of political hierarchy. You don't need money, states, borders, or dictators to publicly own goods.

While I disagree with the concept of a military—beyond a self-defence force—it's the hypocrisy that gets me.

Ummm I don't really use any of those services. I don't see how it's bad to remove something utterly useless 🤷‍♂️
