I mean, this is literally an advocacy for racist authoritarianism, tho.

[–] Cryophilia@lemmy.world 31 points 5 months ago (1 children)

It's advocacy for "might makes right".

If the little piggies had grown up in the wild, they would be Razorbacks and would rip the wolf to shreds and then eat him. Or perhaps the little piggies could have spent some of their wealth contracting wolfhounds to keep their houses safe. Instead, they trusted to their ivory-tower theories and got eaten.

Wolfs do not normally loose to individual wild pigs

A typical wolf may kill 50 boars in a year and especially preys on piglets

That's why I used plural forms

"I can take things from those people that are different from me because I'm physically stronger than them and might makes right. You should do the same."

The wolf who killed the pig distributed the pig's land and resources to other wolves. This is wolf-supremacy with a supreme leader.

Because he distributed land he took from pigs to his wolf friends. Even if you consider it as an analogy, you're dehumanizing the pigs.

Anarchist theory is pretty much the opposite of that or "might makes right".

[–] FiniteBanjo@lemmy.today 5 points 5 months ago (1 children)

If you're waiting for a powerful military force to end capitalism and allocate resources as their leader wishes, that's not anarchy. That's just new management.

fdafgood thing that's not what I'm aiming for then? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
