The libertarians and social conservatives on the right are usually at odds with one another.

Yeah this is why I hate anarchism. Obviously we need a state to enforce all the human rights violations /s

In a true anarchist society, what stops the very same people who are committing human rights violations now under the guise of government from doing the same thing as freelancers?

[–] Emerald@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

People in government have a lot more power then those who aren't in government. In anarchism, everyone would be on an equal level. Therefore a "freelancer" wouldn't have the power to do the mass-scale human rights abuses that they would if they were in government.

but also... I'm not necessarily an anarchist nor am I against anarchism
