That's where community and mutual aid come in. You have neighbors who also would like to not lose their homes either so they would protect yours like you would protect theirs. The importance and strength of community rises as the power of the state diminishes.

It is absolutely possible to go on vacation without oppressing or exploiting others. It happens all the time. You can avoid Airbnbs and stay in a hotel, camp, sleep in a car, or just stay home.

I really don't understand how you came to the conclusion that you cease possession of something the moment you end physical contact with it. You're gonna have to walk me through that one if you want to actually argue that point.

The whole point of mutual aid is to prevent that though. It organizes people together to stop a small group of people from taking everything.

The hard part is getting everyone to participate in mutual aid when we live in a dog eat dog world that was built by the small group of well armed people.

Absolutely! And by improving your own home, you are directly improving the community and environment for those around you while others do the same for you.

That is objectively wrong according to most historians and anthropologists. It is propaganda written by those in power to justify their abuse of power. What you are describing is generally seen as sociopathic and antisocial behavior. And this may come as a shock to you, but most people are not sociopaths.

Since no one is answering seriously, I will try. There is a distinct difference in anarchist philosophy between property and possession which I will try to explain with housing.

Property is something that is used to oppress people. Which is why anarchist philosophy aims to abolish all property. In this case, housing that is being used for Airbnbs takes a house from someone that could use it to create a home for themselves and their family and instead uses that land and building to make a profit .

Possession on the other hand would be someone using that land and building to make a home for themselves and their family, not to make a profit but to survive and exist.

Owning one home for yourself is not a property but a possession but owning multiple homes that you use to make a profit is property. So the anarchist solution to this is to give that Airbnb to someone who could make it into a permanent home, not a short term rental.

The book Johnny Got His Gun kind of answers this question. In the book, a WWI soldier gets blown up by an artillery shell and wakes up in a hospital missing most of his body. He has lost his arms, legs, nose, mouth, eyes, and ears.

In the end he learns he can communicate with a nurse by tapping his head in Morse code. So it would seem as long as you could move you head with your neck, you can still communicate with others.

Source is they made it the fuck up.

77.3 million voted for Trump in 2024 out of a population of about 342 million.Not even 23% of all Americans voted for Trump in 2024.

There is an experiment in Russia that has been breeding foxes for over 50 years now. The goal is to understand how domestication changes an the physiology of an animal. They breed the foxes that show the most tame and docile behaviors towards humans in an effort to recreate the process of changing wolves to dogs.

On the flip side, they also breed the foxes that are most aggressive and hostile towards people. One day they will get too powerful and get loose...

While I'm not an expert in this area, it is also possible their cyber campaigns specifically target improperly defended industries. Attacking a target is much easier than defending one, that is true in every field and most industries don't take their cyber security very seriously. A cyber attack that is funded and sponsored by a large state like Russia is sure to find many victims. Most industries are easy targets because they have thousands of people who are not trained in to defend against even the most basic of cyber attacks.

And of course only the successful attacks make the news, the unsuccessful one are never reported.

This is a pretty interesting video that shows how using leaked personal data like emails and passwords can be used to track down a specific person even when they're trying to hide themselves online.

Political anarchy is not inherently against rules. Anarchy does not mean that everything is on fire and everyone steals from others and do whatever they want, that's just a common misconception.

Also it's only 3 pretty basic rules, nothing particularly crazy about them
